Why Bet on Liverpool?

Liverpool looked set to fight until the end of the season for all the titles, but towards the end of the campaign, they fell apart both at the local level and in the Europa League, where they were humiliated by Atalanta. 

In their previous match, the Reds were 2-1 up over West Ham, with goals from Andrew Roberton and Alphonse Areola (against). But a lapse of concentration allowed Michael Antonio to equalize. With this draw, Liverpool is third with 75 points, five points behind leaders Arsenal. Manchester City is second with 79 points and one game less. 

However, it is worth noting it is the best home team in the Premier League, with 42 points from 17 matches. Only four times it has given up points, and one of them was their last home slip versus Crystal Palace. 

The team’s top scorer is still Mohamed Salah (17) but the Egyptian is involved in a big controversy with Jürgen Klopp, as they argued before the striker entered the pitch in the match against West Ham. Although the coach said everything was resolved in the dressing room, Salah said that, if he spoke, “there would be fire.” 

Klopp could count again on Diogo Jota to reinforce an attack that is at a low level, but Joel Matip, Conor Bradley, and Thiago are still out. 

Why Bet on Tottenham?

Tottenham had a campaign as usual. It seemed that they could fight for the top, but they have been relegated to compete with Aston Villa to occupy the fourth position and secure the ticket to the next Champions League, regardless of the change in the format of the European competition. 

The Spurs are coming off a 2-3 loss in the North London derby. The Gunners went 0-3 up in the first half, but in the second part, Cuti Romero and Heung-Min Son scored and fed an illusion that ended in nothing. The Korean is their best scorer, with 16 goals. In addition, he has nine assists. 

Tottenham is in fifth place with 60 points, seven points behind Aston Villa, but it must be taken into consideration that this team has two games in hand. If they catch up with wins, they would be only one unit away from fourth place.

Destiny Udogie and Ryan Sessegnon are the most important absentees of this team. 

Final Betting Analysis: Liverpool vs. Tottenham

This season, the London team beat Liverpool 2-1 in a match full of controversy, especially for a red card to Curtis Jones and a disallowed goal to Luis Diaz, but the last time they played at Anfield, the Reds won 4-3 in a match that became an instant classic. 

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange have Liverpool as the favorite. Their Moneyline shows 1.54, Tottenham has 5.59, and the draw is at 5.33. 

Although Liverpool wants to find its way to victory, the sensations are negative with this set. It seems that the relationship is not at its best, and that will take its toll at home. Each team will end up taking a point after a 1-1. 

Go for a draw. If you bet $100 at 5.33, you will gain $433 for a total payout of $533.
