      Tottenham vs Liverpool Prediction

      League leaders Liverpool will be expected to continue their impressive form, and we expect them to do so at the weekend against Tottenham Hotspur.

      Following their victory over Southampton midweek, Liverpool are now unbeaten in 20 games across all competitions. More impressively, Arne Slot's side remains unbeaten away from home in the league this season, boasting five wins and two draws. Tottenham Hotspur have yet to secure a win in their last three home league games, suffering two losses to Chelsea (3-4) and Ipswich Town (1-2).

      This fixture has been entertaining in recent years, with over 2.5 goals scored in seven of the previous eight meetings and both teams finding the net in the last eight matchups. The hosts approach this game with two wins from five in the league, including losses to Chelsea and Bournemouth (1-0). Liverpool claimed victory in four of their last six league matches, but they have drawn their most recent two.

      We predict a 2-1 win to Liverpool in this fixture.

      Tottenham 1-2 Liverpool.

      Tottenham vs Liverpool Preview & Prediction

      Liverpool make the trip to North London on Sunday, as the Reds take another step on their title charge when they play Tottenham Hotspur, fresh off their midweek win.

      Date: 22/12/2024
      Location: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London.
      Kick-Off: 4.30 pm

      These two sides will meet for the first time this season at the weekend, which will be the first fixture between the two sides of three in the space of two months. The two will meet in the Carabao Cup semi-finals next month, following Tottenham’s win over Manchester United and Liverpool’s win over Southampton, respectively. This fixture last season was one of the more entertaining games of the calendar, filled with plenty of controversy - most notably an error with VAR, which ruled a perfectly good goal from Luis Diaz to be ruled out for offside.

      Tottenham Hotspur’s league form has been inconsistent this season, with the hosts sitting in tenth place in the Premier League. With the nature of the league, though, Ange Postecoglu’s side only find themselves two points outside the European places, knowing a win and results elsewhere - would propel the hosts into those coveted places. Ange Postecoglu’s side are still competing on multiple fronts, with aspirations of a cup final both domestically and on the European front.

      Liverpool has been excellent under Arne Slot this season. However, recent results against Fulham and Newcastle United have shortened their unprecedented lead at the top to just two. The Reds will take solace in the fact that they have a game in hand due to the postponement of the Merseyside Derby. Liverpool hope to win on Sunday, as surprise challengers, Chelsea, can move to the top of the Premier League if they beat Everton earlier in the day. The Reds are still competing for all honours on the domestic and European front following their recent quarter-final success in the Carabao Cup against Southampton away from home.

      Where to watch

      The game will be available to watch on Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Main Event.

      Form Guide

      The recent history between the two clubs suggests that Arne Slot’s side will take all three points in this fixture. The Reds have three of the last five meetings between the two sides, with Tottenham only winning once in the controversial fixture between the two teams last season. Liverpool also has a favourable history on this ground, having won three of their previous five visits to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Interestingly, neither side has kept a clean sheet in this fixture in the previous eight for Liverpool and the last 19 for Tottenham Hotspur.

      Tottenham Hotspur come into this game with only two wins from their last five in all competitions. However, they have consecutive victories over Southampton (0-5) and Manchester United (4-3). The hosts head into this game with two wins from five in the league, including losses to Chelsea and Bournemouth (1-0). Defensively, they have kept only two clean sheets in their previous five league games.

      Home form is pivotal for many sides in this division, and Tottenham Hotspur’s has been relatively strong. They have won 50% of their home league games this season. However, Tottenham Hotspur have yet to secure a win in their last three home league games, suffering two losses to Chelsea (3-4) and Ipswich Town (1-2).

      Liverpool are now unbeaten in 20 games across all competitions following their midweek win over Southampton in the Carabao Cup. Since Nottingham Forest defeated the Reds in the Premier League, the visitors have won eight of their last 11 Premier League matches, with important wins over Chelsea (2-1) and Manchester City (2-0) at Anfield. Liverpool have drawn their last two games, which has opened the opportunity for Chelsea.

      Away from home, Liverpool have been magnificent with one of the best away records in the Premier League. Liverpool have won five of their seven away games this season, with impressive victories over the likes of Manchester United (0-3) at Old Trafford. Arne Slot’s side have won three of their previous five away games, dropping points to Arsenal and Newcastle United, respectively.
