Tottenham vs Liverpool Tips

Our Tip Methodology

At FootballTips, every prediction is shaped by a mix of data-driven analysis and informed football insight. Our contributors consider a wide range of factors before recommending a bet – from recent form and head-to-head records to tactical matchups, team news, and underlying stats.

We look for patterns in goal trends, home and away splits, player performance, and betting market movement to identify where the value lies. We don’t just tip favourites – we aim to find selections that offer a genuine edge. Whether it’s a goalscorer angle, a BTTS trend, or a high-priced underdog, each tip is backed by research and reasoning to help you bet smarter.

Why We’re Backing Liverpool to win and BTTS

There have been plenty of goals between these two teams over the last few years, with no fewer than 20 scored when the sides met four times last season.

This fixture finished in a 6-3 win for the visitors 12 months ago, with Liverpool winning three of those four meetings.

Only Manchester United have conceded more goals than Liverpool in the top half of the table, while 10 of the last 12 matches between these two have seen both teams score.

Why We’re Backing Xavi Simons to Score or Assist

After making a poor start to his time at Tottenham, Dutch ace Xavi Simons has started to make an impact over the last couple of weeks.

It took until December for the 22-year-old to find the net for the first time for his new club, bagging the second goal in a 2-0 home win over Brentford.

He quickly followed that up, three days later, with another in the 3-0 Champions League success over Slavia Prague.

Tottenham Stats

  • Tottenham have won just two of their eight Premier League home games this season
  • Spurs have beaten Liverpool just once in their last 15 league meetings.
  • There hasn’t been a 0-0 draw between the teams since October 2015.

Liverpool Stats

  • Liverpool have scored in each of their last six matches in all competitions.
  • Liverpool have scored in each of their last 19 league games against Tottenham.

Player to Watch – Hugo Ekitike

Liverpool’s leading scorer is striker Hugo Ekitike, who already has seven league goals since joining from Eintracht Frankfurt this summer.

The Frenchman has scored four goals in the last two league matches, netting a brace against both Leeds and Brighton.

Only Luis Suarez has scored multiple goals for Liverpool in three consecutive Premier League games, back in December 2013.
