Fixture: Liverpool vs Tottenham
Date: Sunday 27 April 2025
Kick-off: 16:30 BST
Venue: Anfield

Given Liverpool's strong home form and the absence of key players for Spurs, the Reds are favoured to secure a victory. However, the unpredictability of football means that Spurs could still pose a threat.

Match Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Spurs

Liverpool have been in formidable form, showcasing their title credentials with a series of impressive results. Their last five league matches have seen them secure four victories with one defeat.

The Reds have been particularly strong at home, with their recent wins against West Ham, Everton, and Southampton highlighting their dominance at Anfield. However, their loss to Fulham on the road serves as a reminder that they are not invincible, and they will need to be at their best to secure the points against a potentially dangerous Spurs side.

Last 5 league matches:

• Win: 1-0 vs Leicester (A)
• Win: 2-1 vs West Ham (H)
• Loss: 2-3 vs Fulham (A)
• Win: 1-0 vs Everton (H)
• Win: 3-1 vs Southampton (H)
  

Spurs have had a challenging run of late, with their form dipping at a crucial stage of the season. Their last five league matches have resulted in three losses and two wins.

Despite their inconsistent form, Spurs have shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in their home win against Southampton. However, their recent away form, including heavy defeats to Wolves and Fulham, suggests they will need to improve their performance to challenge Liverpool at Anfield significantly.

Last 5 league matches:

• Loss: 1-2 vs Nottingham Forest (H)
• Loss: 2-4 vs Wolves (A)
• Win: 3-1 vs Southampton (H)
• Loss: 0-1 vs Chelsea (A)

Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konaté, van Dijk, Robertson; Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Gakpo, Diaz

Liverpool are likely to deploy their trademark 4-3-3 formation, with a focus on high pressing and quick transitions. The recent return of Trent Alexander-Arnold could provide an additional attacking threat from the right-back position.

Vicario; Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Spence; Bissouma, Bentancur, Maddison; Kulusevski, Richarlison, Tel

In the absence of Son Heung-min, Spurs may opt for a 4-3-3 formation, with Richarlison leading the line and supported by the creative talents of James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski. The midfield trio of Bissouma, Bentacur, and Maddison will be crucial in controlling the game's tempo.

• Mohamed Salah vs Djed Spence: Salah's ability to exploit spaces and deliver incisive passes will be tested against Spence's defensive resilience and attacking flair.
• Virgil van Dijk vs Richarlison: The battle between Liverpool's commanding centre-back and Spurs' dynamic forward could be pivotal, with Van Dijk's aerial dominance facing Richarlison's physicality and finishing prowess.
  Alexis Mac Allister vs Yves Bissouma: The midfield duel between these two industrious players will be crucial in determining which team gains control of the game's tempo and possession.
  

• Liverpool have scored 100 goals against Spurs in all competitions, a testament to their historical dominance in this fixture.
• Mohamed Salah has been directly involved in 45 goal contributions this season, breaking the record for the most goal involvements in a 38-match Premier League season.
