Tottenham vs Liverpool Preview

Sunday, November 6th, 16:30 (UK)

It’s a match-up that Tottenham have failed to impose themselves on in the modern era. From the 23 matches played across the last decade, Spurs have won just two.

With mounting injury concerns and fitness issues in a cramped schedule, it may be too much of a stretch for Tottenham to overcome both Marseille and Liverpool in the same week with six points in their pocket.

Heung-Min Son vacated the pitch during Champions League commitments during the week, adding to Romero, Richarlison, and Kulasevski’s spells on the sideline. Nevertheless, Liverpool have their own issues and plenty of them. Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota are the key absentees in the forward line, facing layoffs outlasting the World Cup, whilst Andrew Roberston works his way back to full match fitness.

The Scotsman should be in the starting eleven for Sunday’s trip to the capital, alongside Trent Alexander-Arnold on the right of defence. For Liverpool to click, the output from the two full-back positions is required in tandem. That’s not something Jurgen’s men have been able to rely on this term, with Robertson missing a third of the campaign through injury.

Coming off the back of a loss against Leeds at Anfield, straight into a win versus an undefeated Napoli in 2022/23, in the same stadium, it’s hard to get a hold on what type of Liverpool team will turn up at the weekend. Therefore, avoiding siding with a result could be wise either way.

As we’re taking the early prices here, unfortunately, no prop selections are thrown in the mix. However, if you can get Darwin Nunez anywhere near 2.00 for three shots on Sunday when markets are released, that wouldn’t be the worst idea in the world.

First up for the bet builder in question, let’s side with goals. Spurs and Liverpool knows where the net is, no question about that, whilst both are shipping goals at a rate that both managers would appreciate seeing less of.

Spurs found themselves 2-0 down to Bournemouth on the weekend before clawing their way back into the game. Liverpool? Well, the 8/12 games where The Reds have conceded the first goal is a frightening statistic if you’re of a Liverpool persuasion. That’s the third-highest total in the Premier League, with only Southampton and West Ham above them.

Liverpool’s BTTS figures feed into the conceded first statistic, as 7/12 matches again places them third in the Premier League in another unwanted metric. Interestingly, Spurs 8/13 has them just in front of Liverpool, indicating there could be more of the same if the season’s trends continue.

So, that’s BTTS in the bag, although the 1.53 price isn’t the biggest. But, if we include over 2.5 goals in the builder, something that has come to fruition in 4/6 Spurts home games – the third most in the league, it gets us to 1.90. On the other hand, Liverpool have paid out BTTS and Over 2.5 goals for punters in 3/5 away games. Again, that’s the third-highest total in the Premier League.

In what should be a heated affair which both sides will feel like they can get something from, don’t be surprised to see tempers flare. The 1.20 yellow cards received per90 away from home for Liverpool is pipped to the post by Spurs’ 2.17 at home. It’s enough to assume cards will be on the agenda at some stage.

Tottenham will likely set up and play on the counter as Liverpool advance up the pitch and attempt to operate in the attacking third. It should leave plenty of space in behind when in transition, with the likelihood of the visitors picking up a caution ramping up with Spurs motoring towards goal.

Andy Madley has the whistle. Not the ideal referee to prop up your bookings-based selections, I’ll admit. However, we’re not asking for much here with just one card apiece. Both teams have been shown a card in 63% of Madley’s Premier League showings, producing 3.00 yellow cards per90 from eight matches.
