The Matchday 34 clash in the Premier League between Liverpool and Tottenham will take place on April 27 at Anfield. Liverpool vs. Tottenham: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Liverpool
The team secured narrow victories in their last two matches. First, Liverpool defeated West Ham at home (2-1), followed by an away win against Leicester (1-0). As a result, Arne Slot's side has pulled 12 points clear of Arsenal, who are second in the league table. Liverpool only needs a draw in the upcoming match to secure the English championship title for the first time in five years. If they achieve this, they will match Manchester United's 20 league titles.
- In the last 29 Premier League games, Liverpool has suffered just one defeat (21 wins and 7 draws).
- Liverpool has scored at least two goals in 11 of their last 13 league matches.
- The team is on a six-match winning streak at home in the Premier League.
Predicted lineup for Liverpool (4-2-3-1)
Alisson Becker – Virgil van Dijk, Kostas Tsimikas, Ibrahima Konate, Conor Bradley – Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister – Dominik Szoboszlai, Luis Diaz, Mohamed Salah – Cody Gakpo.
Defender Joseph Gomez is out due to injury.
Tottenham
The Londoners come into the upcoming match after two league defeats. They lost away to Wolverhampton (2-4) and were beaten at home by Nottingham Forest (1-2). It's worth noting that Ange Postecoglou's side has managed just one win in their last seven Premier League matches (1 draw and 5 losses). Tottenham sits in a lowly 16th place but has already secured their Premier League status for next season.
- The club conceded first in 6 of their last 7 league games.
- Tottenham's uncompromising away streak in the Premier League stands at 15 matches (5 wins and 10 losses).

Guglielmo Vicario – Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, Pedro Porro, Djed Spence – Pape Sarr, Rodrigo Bentancur, Dejan Kulusevski – Mathys Tel, Wilson Odobert, Richarlison.

Liverpool vs. Tottenham: Match Prediction
Arne Slot's side is aiming to secure the championship in this match. The game will be played at home in front of their fans, with whom the players and club management will celebrate their 20th English championship title after the final whistle. Moreover, Liverpool rarely drops points at Anfield, having won 12 and drawn 2 of their last 14 Premier League matches there.
Tottenham is merely playing out this season. The team has had a disappointing campaign but still has a chance to salvage it by winning the Europa League. If Ange Postecoglou manages to win the European competition, he will not only secure a Champions League spot but also keep his position at the club. Therefore, the Londoners will focus all their efforts on the continental tournament and approach the upcoming match without motivation. Furthermore, Tottenham has lost their last three away Premier League matches, twice by a two-goal margin.
My prediction – Liverpool with a handicap (-1.5)
