Tottenham v Liverpool Match Result
The latest Premier League match odds indicates that Liverpool have a roughly 60% chance of winning this clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. They have accrued thirty-six points from fifteen games played, with Arne Slot’s side having won five of their seven games on the road, while the other two clashes have resulted in a draw.
They began the season with bloodless victories away to Ipswich and Manchester United before further triumphs away to Wolves and Crystal Palace. A 2-2 draw at Arsenal came before a 3-2 comeback win over Southampton before a 3-3 draw at Newcastle which laid bare some defensive frailties that Tottenham will be keen to capitalise on.
You might not fancy backing Spurs at short prices, although the north London side look tasty odds to claim three points here and they have defeated Manchester City 4-0 this season. They have only won 50% of their home matches, with one draw and three defeats also occurring, with Arsenal, Chelsea and Ipswich landing a victory.
However, Tottenham won this fixture last season against nine men and they are certainly a team who can power score on home soil considering that they have found the net twenty times in eight games in front of their own fans. At the very least, they might be capable of holding their opponents to a draw based on their attacking play.
Indeed, the draw could well be the outcome to back on the Full-Time Result market considering that the two teams could cancel each other out, with Liverpool being held to a 2-2 draw by Fulham last weekend which saw them come from behind to land a point.
Goals Under/Over
For some customers, it’s not a question of whether we’ll see the game go over the 2.5 goal line but whether we might see Over 3.5 Goals or even Over 4.5 Goals. It could well be the case that the net will bulge several times and you only have to go back a fortnight to remember that Chelsea came from two goals down to claim a 4-3 success.
Tottenham have been involved in lots of high-scoring encounters this term and that 5-0 win at St Mary’s was a case in hand. There’s certainly no arguing with their attacking players, especially when James Maddison and Son Heung-Min are in the groove, with Dominic Solanke capable of doing bits in the middle of the attack.
We also know this Liverpool team can score goals and Mohamed Salah is capable of bolstering his tally for the season, with the Reds scoring three times at St James’ Park before netting twice against Fulham. We would say Over 3.5 Goals looks like a solid bet based on the stats available to us.
BTTS
The BTTS Yes option is sure to feature in many a Tottenham v Liverpool Bet Builder and it looks like a straightforward bet considering that goals are likely to be the order of the day. Tottenham have scored twenty times in their eight home games and it seems probable that they will find the net at least once against a defence who didn’t look watertight on their recent trip to Newcastle.
On the flip side, Spurs have conceded eleven times in their eight home matches and they face a Liverpool side who have netted a solid sixteen times in seven away clashes, with Mohamed Salah having scored thirteen times in the Premier League this term.
As always, there’s the chance to combine the BTTS Yes option with the Match Result and that would certainly boost the odds if you want to back a team to claim a victory along with them both scoring. It’s easy enough to see them trading blows considering that the sides will be going for a victory.
As for the chances of BTTS No, Liverpool have achieved some bloodless victories recently. There were Champions League triumphs to nil against Real Madrid and Girona, while Aston Villa and Manchester City were also beaten without reply.
First Goalscorer
Mohamed Salah is actually odds-on to score any time and there’s a lot to like about siding with a player on the First Goalscorer market who is in such excellent form. Before that 2-2 draw with Fulham, the Egyptian King had scored in seven consecutive Premier League encounters, so it would seem plausible that he’ll be among the goals here.
Salah could well break the deadlock and he’s on penalty kicks for the visitors, with Tottenham Hotspur having conceded two of them against Chelsea, while he’s the only Liverpool forward guaranteed to start, although one would assume that Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz will get the nod for the other attacking places.
As for Tottenham, James Maddison scored twice at St Mary’s and also bagged a brace at Manchester City but went several games in between without finding the net. The goals return of Dominic Solanke has been modest since his big money move from Bournemouth, although Son Heung-Min appears to be finding form.
Dejan Kulusevski also has a good eye for goal and we expect the Swede to find himself in some good attacking positions. At bigger prices, consider Liverpool pair Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold who can oblige if Liverpool get a lot of possession.
