The Matchday 34 Premier League clash between Liverpool and Tottenham will take place on April 27 at Anfield. Liverpool vs. Tottenham: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Liverpool
The team secured narrow victories in their last two outings. First, they defeated West Ham at home (2-1), and then they managed an away win against Leicester (1-0). As a result, Arne Slot's side has pulled 12 points clear of Arsenal, who are second in the league table. Liverpool only needs a draw in the upcoming match to become champions of England for the first time in five years. If this happens, the club will match Manchester United's record of 20 league titles.
- In the last 29 Premier League games, Liverpool has suffered just one defeat (21 wins and 7 draws).
- Liverpool has scored at least two goals in 11 of their last 13 league matches.

Tottenham
The London side approaches the upcoming match after two league defeats. The club lost away to Wolverhampton (2-4) and was also beaten at home by Nottingham Forest (1-2). It is worth noting that Ange Postecoglou's side has managed just one win in their last seven Premier League games (1 draw and 5 losses). Tottenham is in a lowly 16th place but has already secured their Premier League status for next season.
- The club has conceded first in 6 of their last 7 league games.

Liverpool vs. Tottenham: Match Prediction
Arne Slot's side aims to clinch the championship in this match. After all, the game will be at home in front of their fans, with whom the players and club management will celebrate their 20th title as England's top team after the final whistle. Moreover, Liverpool rarely drops points at Anfield, having won 12 and drawn 2 in their last 14 Premier League matches.
Tottenham is playing out the remainder of the season. The team has had a disappointing campaign but still has a chance to salvage it by winning the Europa League. If Ange Postecoglou manages to win the European competition, he will not only secure a Champions League spot but also keep his job at the club. Therefore, the London side will focus all their efforts on the continental tournament and approach the upcoming match without motivation. Furthermore, Tottenham has suffered three consecutive away defeats in the Premier League, twice losing by a two-goal margin in these games.
My prediction – Liverpool with a handicap (-1.5)
