Tottenham host Liverpool on Saturday afternoon aiming to secure their second win of the Premier League season.
Spurs edged past Crystal Palace last time out and while Mauricio Pochettino insisted he was happy with his team's performance, he would probably have preferred to witness a greater margin of victory.
Making the difference up front no longer rests squarely on the shoulders of Harry Kane, with Vincent Janssen also vying for a place in the front line when Jurgen Klopp's side come to town.
But it would be a bold move not to re-install Kane as Tottenham's attacking spearhead against a Liverpool team boasting the worst defensive record in the Premier League, as it stands.
The Merseysiders have a point to prove after being beaten by Burnley last time out but so do Spurs, with some still seemingly convinced that a second successive title challenge will not be forthcoming.
 Mauricio Pochettino's best results as Tottenham boss
Date, time and venue
Tottenham welcome Liverpool at White Hart Lane on Saturday August 27. Kick-off is at 12:30.
Where and when to watch
There game will not be televised live but you can follow all the build-up and action with Standard Sport’s live blog.
Form guide
Spurs have enjoyed a solid start to the season.
READ MORE
One win and a draw is not to be sniffed at, especially given that Everton appear to be a resurgent force under Ronald Koeman.
But the north Londoners are not yet in full swing, with several of their key players still building up their fitness after extended breaks in the wake of Euro 2016.
Pochettino will hope the hype surrounding Champions League draw does not distract his side.
Klopp does not have such a problem as Liverpool will not play in Europe this season.
But optimism that a title challenge could be on the cards after beating Arsenal on the opening day has waned since a disappointing defeat at Turf Moor.
The Reds are still not the finished article and their form could continue to be patchy until Klopp has his team pulling in the same direction.
One to watch
Dele Alli
The 20-year-old was only fit enough for the bench against Palace but made an instant impact when he was brought on in the latter stages of the game.
And that is expected to be enough for the England international to secure a starring berth ahead of Vincent Janssen this week.
Alli makes Spurs tick and the extra competition for places at White Hart Lane may well see him take his game to another level.
His every move will be scrutinised against Liverpool given that he came close to moving to Anfield.
Sadio Mane
The Senegal international is flavour of the month at Anfield and possesses the pace to blow away any defence in the division.
Mane has made a cracking start to his Liverpool career, but that could make him a marked man from now on.
And Pochettino is keen to see his side keep the 24-year-old on the fringes of the game: "He showed at Southampton what quality he has.

— Liverpool FC (@LFC) August 25, 2016
"Mane is very good, I know him very well.
"He's a great player but Liverpool have signed very good players and spent a lot of money."
 Pochettino's current XI vs Spurs' Champions League XI
Team news and probable line ups
Hugo Lloris' recovery from a hamstring injury is on track and Spurs expect to welcome him back into the fold after the international break.
READ MORE
Mousa Dembele is set to be the only other absentee for the hosts as Kevin Wimmer has shaken off a knock and Dele Alli has recovered from illness.
Victor Wanyama will deputise for Dembele while Alli will be hopeful an encouraging appearance off the bench will be enough to claim a starting berth.
Pochettino has hinted Alli, Janssen and Kane can feature in one side but is likely to side with tested tactics rather experimental ones against such a dangerous opponent who, as Arsenal know, are capable of scoring a hatful away from the comforts of Anfield.
Tottenham possible XI: Vorm; Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Wanyama; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Kane.
Daniel Sturridge has kicked up a fuss about playing wide but might find himself on the bench, despite gettign on the scoresheet at Burton Albion.
Klopp has several formation options open to him but could opt for a 4-3-3 in order to combat Tottenham's full backs, who bomb on an at every opportunity.
James Milner is in line for a left-back role if Alberto Moreno is not deemed worthy of a starting berth.
Liverpool possible XI: Mignolet; Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Milner; Lallana, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Mane, Firmino, Coutinho.
What they're saying
Mauricio Pochettino: "It will be a very tough game. I remember last season it was Klopp's first game in charge.
"They like to play on the counter attack. They are fast. Different to us - we like to manage the ball.
"We are a different team with a different philosophy but it will be tough."
Mauricio on @LFC team news: "Hugo is still out and @mousadembele is suspended. Everyone else is fit." #COYS

Jurgen Klopp: "They [Tottenham] are absolutely convinced about their way and their style of play.
"They didn't change too much and they have high individual quality.
"They are a pressing team, a high-pressure team, so we need to know about this.
"They don't give away a lot of spaces but there are spaces, of course."
