It's been an unbeaten start for Spurs Women in 2026, defeating Leicester City in the league and then the FA Cup. Next it's a trip to the North West, as they take on Liverpool at the St Helens Stadium. It's a game they have to win in order maintain their Champions League challenge.
Signe Gaupset is already showing her class, shining in both matches against Leicester. Other new recruits are also being integrated into the side.Cathinka Tandberg could well be available for Martin Ho tomorrow. The Spurs boss says that "she gives you a different profile in that front line... It gives you an energy and a personality up the pitch that obviously has made a big impact for us when she first came in." Olga Ahtinen might be involved too.
Despite the Reds languishing at the bottom of the WSL table, Ho is not taking the opponents lightly. "I don't think their performances have been where the table shows, if I'm honest," he said. "They're in good control of games, they're possessing the ball well, they're very offensive-minded, and maybe just lack that cutting edge around the attacking third." Spurs also need to show their cutting edge - three goals away from home last weekend is a good sign, but that needs to happen more consistently.
Spurs won 2-1 back in November. However, the record on Merseyside is terrible - no win in three attempts. Tomorrow would be a very good time to turn that around.
