Spurs v Liverpool Preview: Biggest Game of the Season

Liverpool will travel to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on this Saturday in a top 4 clash with both teams unbeaten this season. 


Liverpool’s Start to the Season
The Reds have 5 wins in the last 5 Premier League games and have not lost a game in all competitions this season and a flying after a poor 2022-23 season. 

They sit second in the Premier League 2 points behind a strong Manchester City side who are looking to retain their title as champions of England, Liverpool will put up a good fight to make sure that this does not happen. 

After a 3-1 home win in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, Liverpool make it through to the 4th round and keep high hopes that the Reds can push for a second League Cup trophy in 3 seasons. Klopp’s men fought hard to beat Leicester in front of a full Anfield crowd after going 1-0 down in the first 3 minutes of the game, it included a masterclass performance for Hungarian midfielder Dominick Szoboslai who has become a fan favourite after a strong start to his Anfield career. 


Tottenham’s Start to the Season
Spurs have had a great start to the season with new Australian coach, Ange Postecoglou, with 4 wins and 2 draws in 6 games sitting in 4th, 1 point behind Brighton and 4 points behind the top of the table. 

Fantastic performances both individually and as a team has produced results since the start of the season. James Maddison arrived to London in the summer and has shown his class by creating a whole new dynamic for the attacking force since losing Harry Kane to Bayern Munich. 

Saturday’s Game
Saturday evening’s game looks to  be a promising one full of entertainment and lots of big opportunities. 

Two top teams looking to keep up their unbeaten league form in an attempt to challenge for the title, Klopp is looking to get his side back on track after a poor season last time out and Postecoglou is trying to make a statement to the rest of the league and Europe to prove that Tottenham should be considered one of the top sides. 

Predictions for the Match
A tough game for the reds this weekend as they are facing a strong opposition at a tough stadium. I believer that they will get nothing less than a draw and they would be more likely to come out as the better side. 

Tottenham will put up a good fight with Klopp’s men and it proves to be one of the most entertaining games of the season, one that will shape the table for the rest of the season.
