Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Liverpool vs. Tottenham at English Premier League
Liverpool’s title dreams are over. The Reds lost pace in the final part of the season and now have to play the remaining games without any motive. On the other side is Tottenham, who also started struggling when needed the least, though they have something to fight for – the Champions League spot. Ange Postecoglou’s unit still has some chances to reach fourth place, but they need to win every game until the end.
Liverpool
The Reds lost to Crystal Palace, then failed to beat Everton, and finally had a tie on the road against West Ham. It meant that the title race for them was officially over and that Jurgen Klopp wouldn’t leave the club with at least one trophy won in his final season at Anfield.
Liverpool has not won at home in the past two events, and they have not scored a single goal. One of the best offenses in the world failed when needed the most. And yes, they should get rid of Darwin Nunez because he isn’t of the caliber for this team.
Eight of their past ten contests at home were with over 2.5 goals, and seven with both teams netting. So we can say that the efficiency of their games is high.
Tottenham
Back-to-back losses have put the Spurs in a nasty position. They have seven points fewer than Aston Villa but only two games in hand, which means they are still one point short of the Villains.
They were humiliated in Newcastle, 4-0, and then suffered an undeserved loss to Arsenal, 2-3. Tottenham was down 0-3, and that all happened with them having the initiative and pressuring Arsenal, who had plenty of luck in certain situations. But that’s football.
Like Liverpool, Tottenham also plays offensive football, trying to use its attack and offensive talent. However, their defense is somewhat mediocre, which is the main reason for all the struggles. Only one of the past ten games didn’t see three or more goals, while seven ended with both teams netting.
Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Davies; Sarr, Bissouma; Kulusevski, Maddison, Son; Richarlison
Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Szoboszlai, Endo, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
Tottenham was better in the first game of the year, winning 2-1 at the London Stadium. Liverpool played with a player fewer for more than half an hour and managed to keep a draw until the sixth minute of the injury time when Matip scored an own goal.
The last seven events between these two units have seen both teams netting, and six of them ended with over 2.5 goals during this stretch.
Goals are the focus here because we really think this match should bring fireworks. We will be “greedy” and go for both teams scoring and over 3.5 goals because Tottenham has nothing to wait for and has to go all in. That usually means they will attack with all of their power.
Our verdict: Both teams to score and Over 3.5 goals
