Tottenham will be looking to avoid a third Premier League defeat in a row when Ange Postecoglou’s side take on Liverpool at Anfield later today.

After picking up a big win against Eintracht Frankfurt to confirm their spot in the Europa League semi-finals, Spurs’ poor Premier League form continued as they lost 2-1 at home to Nottingham Forest. The result meant Postecoglou’s side entered the weekend 16th in the Premier League table, but with all their eggs in the Europa League basket, Spurs may rotate their squad to ensure there are no problems ahead of Thursday’s clash with Bodo/Glimt.

This will be the fourth meeting of the season between Spurs and Liverpool, with the Reds winning 6-3 in the Premier League and 4-1 on aggregate in the Carabao Cup semi-final. There are no new injury concerns for the Lilywhites, but Heung-Min Son will be absent once again.

So, can Spurs pick up a win in the Premier League ahead of next week’s big Europa League game? Let’s take a look.

Liverpool vs Tottenham Premier League score predicted

To complete this simulation, we used EA FC 25 and updated the squads with the latest injuries and suspensions.

We predict that Liverpool could line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with their starting XI as follows: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota.

We predict that Spurs could set up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their line-up as follows: Vicario; Gray, Danso, Davies, Udogie; Bergvall, Bissouma, Maddison; Johnson, Solanke, Richarlison.

An open start to the game saw both sides come close in the first 20 minutes, with Luis Diaz curling an effort onto the crossbar before Dominic Solanke did the same at the other end. Richarlison had two big chances fall his way not long after Solanke’s shot, but the Brazilian couldn’t convert either as Spurs failed to capitalise on a great period of play.

It didn’t take long for Liverpool to start controlling the game though, with Guglielmo Vicario being called into action to deny Mohamed Salah and Andrew Robertson as the chances started to pile up. The Reds continued to push forward, and just before half-time, Slot’s side went ahead.

Mohamed Salah made it 1-0 to Liverpool

A great challenge from Alexis Mac Allister allowed the midfielder to win back possession and drive forward to kickstart a Liverpool attack. The Argentine found Diaz on the left who threaded a wonderful pass through to Salah, and one-on-one, the winger powered a shot into the bottom corner to make it 1-0.

With the lead, the Reds started to dominate all aspects of the game, with Spurs seeing little of the ball in the final third. The game was settled in the 86th minute when Salah’s chipped cross was headed home by Cody Gakpo at the back post, wrapping up the three points as Liverpool won the Premier League.
