Liverpool vs Tottenham Betting Preview
Liverpool and Tottenham have an identical record of seven wins, four draws and one defeat so far this season. Both sides only managed draws on the weekend, meaning that Spurs that remain ahead on goal-difference.
The Reds drew 1-1 at Fulham, courtesy of Mo Salah's late penalty. Josè Mourinho's men also faltered last weekend when drawing 1-1 at Crystal Palace, with Harry Kane’s 23rd-minute opener cancelled out by Jeffrey Schlupp late on.
Liverpool have won the last 6 top-flight games at home. Anyway, their 65-game home unbeaten run will be put to the test by Tottenham as the Spurs romped to a 6-1 victory at Manchester UTD few weeks ago and currently are enjoying a six-match unbeaten run on the road in the Premier League.
As to direct encounters, it is hard to ignore Tottenham's head-to-head record of five straight losses to the Reds. They have only lost of their last 15 Premier League meetings with the Lilywhites and just one of their last 26 at Anfield Road.
Liverpool are 81/10 favorite with Novibet to get all three points here. An away win is backable at 18/5 with Unibet while the best price for the draw is 3/1 with Betfred.

Probable Line-Ups
The Merseysiders will be without Kostas Tsimikas, Diogo Jota, Joe Gomez, Xherdan Shaqiri, James Milner, Virgil van Dijk and Thiago Alcantara, due to injury, and there are concerns over Joel Matip. It means that Nat Phillips and Fabinho are likely to form the centre-back pair. Curtis Jones is expected to retain his starting berth in midfield, while Mo Salah, Sadio Manè and Roberto Firmino will form the lethal trio up-front.
Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Fabinho, Robertson; Henderson, Wijnaldum, Jones; Salah, Firmino, Mane
Erik Lamela likely to be the only absentee for the visitors in this match as Gareth Bale should make the bench at least. Matt Doherty and Giovani Lo Celso are also in line to replace Serge Aurier and Tanguy Ndombele while the rest of the team will remain unchanged. Harry Kane will spearhead the attack as usual, with Son Heung Min and Steven Bergwijn out wide. Moussa Sissoko and Pierre Hojberg will anchor the midfield, while Eric Dier and Toby Alderweireld are likely to start as centre backs, although Joe Roden is pushing for a start.
Tottenham (4-2-3-1): Lloris; Doherty, Alderweireld, Dier, Reguilon; Sissoko, Hojbjerg; Bergwijn, Lo Celso, Son; Kane
Our Liverpool vs Tottenham Predictions
We're expecting a tight and tense game between the top two clubs in the Premier League right now. Liverpool have a lot of missing players at the back and Joel Matip's absence could be a massive blow. Tottenham have drawn each of their past three road trips at Chelsea, LASK and Palace and we believe they will remain unbeaten at Anfield Road too.
