Liverpool v Tottenham Preview
Liverpool’s Form
With 3 games remaining in Liverpool’s season before the curtains are drawn for the final time for Klopp as manager of the club it is unlikely to end in silverware. Despite being in the title race up until very recently a record of 5 points from their last 5 games means they’re now 4 points behind 2nd place Man City (having played an extra game over City) and 5 behind Arsenal.
Last weekend they were held to a 2-2 draw away to West Ham, despite having had 72% of possession and 28 shots for an XG of 2.29 goals from Robertson in the 48th minute and an Areola own goal in the 65th minute were not enough for the 3 points. West Ham were much more clinical from 11 shots and an XG of 0.79 goals from Bowen in the 43rd minute and Antonio in the 77th minute meant the points were shared.
Liverpool can secure 3rd with a win in this game.

Tottenham’s Form
It’s been a largely positive season for Spurs, having disappointingly finished 8th in the league last year, Ange Postecoglou has brought them to 5th with 4 games remaining in his first season. However, in recent weeks they have lost 3 games on the spin which puts their 4th prospects very unlikely (7 behind Aston Villa) with the outside chance of Man United (6 points behind back in 6th) catching them in the closing weeks of the season.
On Thursday Night, Tottenham were defeated for the third successive time following Chelsea landing a 2-0 win in the London Derby after goals from Chalobah in the 24th minute and Jackson in the 72nd minute. Chelsea were far more effective with their 37% possession with their 16 shots having an XG of 2.22 to Tottenham’s 19 shots and XG of 1.27.
Tottenham could take a huge step toward securing a 5th finish with a win over fellow out-of-form side Liverpool.

Key Players To Watch
Mo Salah – Liverpool
While the curtains are closing on Klopp’s Liverpool career it could be a similar story for Salah in the coming weeks. Salah will turn 32 in the summer and despite a tally of 24 goals and 13 assists from 41 appearances this season, there seems to be a tinge of slowing down and he could move on in the summer.
Having not started against West Ham last weekend, I suspect he will be back in for the start of this game.
Heung Min Son – Tottenham
Following Kane’s departure to Bayern last summer, it’s no surprise Son stepped up and the newest Tottenham Captain has been their star performer this season despite being the same age as Salah (31) a tally less than him with 16 goals and 9 assists from 32 games. You get the feeling his Tottenham story isn’t quite over yet.
Liverpool v Tottenham Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Tottenham
Liverpool’s downturn in form means it’s very unlikely they can climb further than 3rd in the closing weeks of the season. However, they remain a solid side with some brilliant players and cannot be underestimated.
Tottenham’s positive season seems to be ending on a whimper and while the future looks bright, their recent run is even more concerning than Liverpool’s
I fancy Liverpool to win, but there could be goals.
