Klopp's situation is completely different to Pochettino's. One is a leader in England and has increased his prestige after an almost impeccable start; the other continues to be questioned after a turbulent summer.
13 points separate both teams. Tottenham will visit Anfield in a critical moment, 7th and losing the same amount of league games that they have won (3).
The Argentine manager, who is not good at visiting Anfield, hopes that his victory against Red Star will boost the morale of his players and make an impact.
Klopp's men were the winners in the Champions League final: the summer has been very different while Liverpool strengthened their project, Tottenham saw rumours about possible exits of their stars.
Now Liverpool can give Pochettino an important lunge in the Premier League and move them further away from the European spots, reflecting that in 5 months the panorama can change outrageously in this marvelous and sometimes cruel sport.
