Tottenham v Liverpool Preview
Tottenham’s Form
Tottenham had a progressive first season under Ange Postecoglou finishing 5th in the league though they were eliminated early in the cup competitions. This time around he has spoken up about their trophy credentials and will be searching for their first trophy since their 2008 success in this competition.
Though at this point in the EFL Cup on merit considering they’ve knocked out several sides including Man City and Man United this game will be their toughest yet. Undergoing a huge injury crisis with 10+ unavailable for selection the odds are firmly against them on Wednesday Night.

Liverpool’s Form
Arne Slot has quite the remarkable first season so far at Liverpool guiding his new club to a phenomenal record of 23 wins from 28 games for a win rate of 82.14% with a goal difference of +46. Their weekend draw against Man United though was arguably their most underwhelming display of Slot’s tenure.
It’ll be interesting to see how Liverpool chose to rotate for this game following their draw against Man United. Star Right Back Trent put in a miserable display at Anfield and with him linked with Real Madrid he could be replaced in the lineup by Northern Ireland International Conor Bradley.

Key Players To Watch
Heung-min Son – Tottenham
Tottenham’s Tallismatic Captain and South Korean legend Son (32) is fastly approaching a decade at the club next year and his status of importance for the club has only grown since the departure of Harry Kane for Bayern.
This season across competitions he has 7 goals and 6 assists from 23 matches and just 1,644 minutes. He is priced at 9/1 to score first and 2/1 to score anytime.
Mohamed Salah – Liverpool
The man affectionately known as “The Egyptian King” by Liverpool fans might be approaching the “Twilight” of his career at (32) but he remains a constant menace for opposition defenders.
This season he has 21 goals and 17 assists in 27 games across all competitions. He can be gotten at 4/1 to score first or at 10/11 to score at any time in this game.
Tottenham v Liverpool Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Tottenham 0-2 Liverpool
Tottenham have done considerably well to reach this point in the competition, and they will be gunning to make home advantage count in the first leg and end their recent poor run of form.
Though Liverpool have been very consistent this season a repeat of their weekend display will allow even a depleted Tottenham side the chance of getting a result.
Both sides will be disappointed with their weekend showings, but I fancy Liverpool to bounce back in a competition they generally enjoy.
Best Bet: Liverpool Win + Under 3.5 Goals @ 9/4
