Liverpool FC vs Tottenham Hotspur FC Match Prediction & Analysis

In a thrilling climax to the weekend, Liverpool welcomes Tottenham Hotspur to Anfield, eyeing nothing less than glory. With the Premier League title within touching distance, the Reds will be ready to turn their fortress into a stage for celebration, if they can conquer Spurs on Sunday. 

They enter the clash buoyed by a narrow 1-0 win over Leicester, sealed by a 76th-minute stunner from the soon-to-depart Trent Alexander-Arnold. In contrast, Tottenham limped into the fixture low on morale after yet another league defeat—this time a 2-1 loss to Nottingham Forest, with Richarlison grabbing a mere consolation.

Current Standings: Liverpool comfortably sits at the top of the league with 79  points in 33  games, while the Spurs, on the other hand, occupy the 16th  position with 37 points in a similar number of games. 

Head-to-Head Record: In the overall head-to-head battles, Liverpool holds a lead of 33-15 over the Saints in 65 matches. 

TEAMS PREVIEW

Liverpool FC Preview

Liverpool are on the verge of glory, just one point away from clinching their first Premier League title since 2019/20. If they do it on Sunday, Arne Slot will join an elite club as the fifth manager in Premier League history to win the title in his debut season, alongside legends like Mourinho, Ancelotti, Pellegrini, and Conte. It’s an exclusive club, no doubt! Not only that, Slot would also make history as the first Dutch manager to win the Premier League. 

Salah leads both Liverpool’s scoring charts and the Premier League this season, but he’s gone four games without a goal. However, his record against Spurs is sensational—15 goals in all competitions, second only to his tally against Manchester United. With 11 of those 15 in the Premier League, he’s just one shy of Alan Shearer’s record against Spurs. 

Key Stats

1. Liverpool have scored in 29 straight Premier League games since their September loss to Forest, the second-longest streak in a single season, only behind Arsenal’s perfect 38-game run in 2001-02.
2. The Reds have been on a 14-match unbeaten run at Anfield, while winning six of their last six games.
3. Mohamed Salah is Liverpool’s top scorer with 27 goals this season. 

Team News 

Only two Liverpool players will miss Sunday’s crucial clash: Joe Gomez, recovering from hamstring surgery, and Tyler Morton, still struggling with a shoulder issue.

Liverpool Probable XI - Alisson (GK); Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota

Tottenham Hotspur FC Preview

Tottenham Hotspur’s Premier League campaign seems all but over as they sit in 16th, with a top-10 finish looking out of reach. With just five games remaining, their disinterest in domestic matters is palpable, but this might just be the calm before the storm as they shift focus to the upcoming Europa League semi-final clash against Bodo/Glimt. The stakes couldn't be higher – Spurs are now all in for European glory, and anything less than a strong push for the final would feel like curtains for Ange Postecoglou. 

Tottenham’s brightest spark right now might just be Richarlison. The Brazilian has found the net in four of his last five Premier League games—yet Spurs lost all four. Meanwhile  only Wolves' Matheus Cunha has scored more in defeats this season. Still, with four goals against Liverpool in the league, Richarlison could be their wild card.

Key Stats

1. They have lost 18 Premier League games this season, only losing more in 1993-94 and 2003-04 (19 both times).
2. The Spurs have been on a three match losing streak away from home.
3. Brennan Johnson is Tottenham’s scorer in the league currently with 11 goals. 

Team News 

Spurs have no fresh injury worries, with only long-term absentees Dragusin and Son sidelined. Destiny Udogie missed the Forest clash but was merely rested, as were Maddison, Solanke, and Johnson after Europa League duties. All are expected to return to the fold in the weekend fixture. 

Tottenham Probable XI - Vicario(GK); Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bergvall, Bentancur, Maddison; Kulusevski, Solanke, Johnson

LIVERPOOL FC vs TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FC
Winning Prediction

It’s been a rough season for Spurs, but meetings with Liverpool have been downright brutal. They’ve faced the Reds twice and lost both times—conceding a staggering 10 goals in the process, with a 6-3 league defeat and a 4-0 EFL Cup semi final thrashing. With Spurs' focus seemingly elsewhere, don’t expect the script to change. Liverpool should be confident of another convincing win.
