Liverpool's Premier League match against Tottenham on Sunday has been postponed due to the icy weather conditions.

Although the pitch at Anfield is playable, police advised that the game be called off due to safety concerns.

The roads and paths leading to the stadium remain treacherous, and the freezing temperatures are expected to continue over the weekend.

No new date has been set for the re-arranged match.

A Liverpool club spokesman said: "The safety of our fans is paramount and an assessment of both the prevailing conditions and the weather forecast for the next 48 hours has been made in arriving at the decision to call off the match.

"All existing tickets will remain valid for the re-arranged game. We will also offer refunds and will publish a deadline date for refunds once the re-arranged fixture date is announced, such that we can re-sell any returned seats to other supporters."
