Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool - Premier League Preview and Odds

September 15, 2018 13:30pm - Wembley Stadium

Premier League

Tottenham Hotspur will look to draw level on points with Liverpool when the two meet at Wembley Stadium on Monday night. Meanwhile, the visitors can retain their place at the top of the table with a win.

Spurs followed up their emphatic 3-0 victory at Old Trafford three weeks ago with a 2-1 defeat away to surprise package Watford. That defeat ended a run of three-straight wins and left Pochettinos men in fifth place. A win at home to the pace setters would give them a massive boost in their quest to be involved in the title race.

The club will continue to play their home games at Wembley while their new stadium is finished. This may not be a bad thing as their record at the national stadium has been impressive with just one defeat in their last 19 league games.

Liverpool have yet to their stride but have won all their games and have the joint-best goal difference in the league. A win here would send an ominous message to their rivals.

Last time out, Klopps men edged a 2-1 victory at Leicester City in which they conceded their first goal of the campaign following a blunder from new keeper Alisson.

This game kicks of a busy month for the Reds in which they will also face Paris Saint-Germain, Southampton, Chelsea (twice), Napoli and Man City across three different competitions. Klopp will be keen to prove his team can compete on all fronts this term.

Possible XIs

Tottenham Hotspur: Lloris Rose, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Trippier Alli, Dembele, Dier Eriksen, Harry Kane, Lucas Moura

Betting odds and tips

Liverpool slumped to a 4-1 defeat here last season but don`t expect a repeat result. The Reds have strengthened and grown in confidence since then, while Spurs have stood still. This should be a much closer encounter and a draw would mark a good result for both sides.

You can back the Draw at 12/5.
