Resurgent Liverpool and struggling Tottenham Hotspur go head-to-head for Saturday night Premier League blockbuster at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
While the reigning champions dey push to extend their unbeaten run to six matches across all competitions, Spurs dey stare serious wahala as dem risk breaking an unwanted club record for home defeats before Christmas.
Match Preview
Just when e be like say Tottenham don finally turn corner under Thomas Frank, everything scatter badly for City Ground. After strong comeback draw against Newcastle and back-to-back convincing home wins against Brentford and Slavia Prague, Spurs fall flat for their face against Nottingham Forest.
Ibrahim Sangare and Callum Hudson-Odoi disgrace the entire Spurs team, combining for three goals and three assists in brutal 3-0 defeat. That loss mean Spurs don now lose three of their last five Premier League matches.
The Lilywhites currently dey sit for bottom half of the league table, six points behind Chelsea for the last Champions League qualification spot. Naturally, talk don begin fly around Thomas Frank future, even though club insiders still believe say the board dey back am for now.
Still, pressure dey build. If Spurs lose this match, dem go record 11 Premier League home defeats for 2025 – the highest number dem don ever suffer for a single calendar year. That one na history nobody want.
To be fair, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium don improve small recently. Spurs don win three and lose only one of their last five home games. But after last weekend humiliation, that stat no really dey comfort anybody inside the stadium.
Meanwhile, Liverpool own side get their own drama off the pitch, but dem manage put all that aside against Brighton last weekend. Mohamed Salah, even though e no start the game, still make history after coming off the bench to assist Hugo Ekitike for second goal in 2-0 win.
The assist mean Salah don now record an unbelievable 277 Premier League goal contributions for Liverpool – the highest ever by any player for one club.
Salah don now leave join Egypt for AFCON, and interestingly, Liverpool never lose any of the five games dem play since e stop starting regularly. That experience without their talisman fit help Arne Slot cope during AFCON period.
Liverpool dey seventh for the table and fit enter top four if results favour dem this weekend. However, one concern remain their away defence. Among ever-present Premier League teams, na only Bournemouth concede two or more goals away from home more times than Liverpool since last season.
Still, Slot men recently show improvement on the road, especially with their 1-0 Champions League win over Inter Milan. Even more worrying for Spurs be say Liverpool don beat dem in their last two meetings with a combined scoreline of 9-1, including that painful 5-1 title-clinching defeat back in April 2025.
Team News
Tottenham midfield don suffer hit due to AFCON call-ups. Pape Sarr and Yves Bissouma dey represent Senegal and Mali respectively, though Bissouma was already unavailable due to injury and disciplinary issues.
Injury-wise, Spurs still dey battle without Dominic Solanke (ankle), Dejan Kulusevski (knee), Destiny Udogie (thigh) and James Maddison (ACL), with none of them close to return.
However, Radu Dragusin (fitness) and Kota Takai (thigh) don feature in recent training-ground friendlies and fit soon return to action.
Youngster Archie Gray make mistake for Forest opening goal last weekend, but Rodrigo Bentancur also no impress. As result, Joao Palhinha and Lucas Bergvall dey strong contenders to start in midfield.
For Liverpool, Mohamed Salah don depart for AFCON, and that alone na big loss. Matters worse as Dominik Szoboszlai – expected replacement – pick ankle injury against Brighton. Though e fit make squad, e unlikely to start.
Joe Gomez also suffer muscle injury last weekend, but Conor Bradley don return from suspension and fit slot in at right-back.
Jeremie Frimpong also back available after two-month thigh injury layoff, boosting options for Slot.
However, Wataru Endo (ankle), Cody Gakpo (muscle) and Giovanni Leoni (ACL) remain definite absentees.
Possible Lineups
Tottenham Hotspur:
Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Palhinha, Bergvall; Kudus, Simons, Kolo Muani; Richarlison
Liverpool:
Alisson; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Chiesa, Jones, Wirtz; Ekitike
Prediction
Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Liverpool
No Premier League fixture don produce more goals than Tottenham vs Liverpool, with 206 goals already recorded, and last season alone see nine goals at this same stadium.
But this time, expect something calmer. Both teams don enjoy rare weekend rest, but Liverpool go miss Szoboszlai creativity and Salah presence.
Even with those absences, Spurs poor build-up play and shaky defence dey hard to ignore. Liverpool still look more organised and confident, and dem fit grind out another win – one that go pile more pressure on Thomas Frank as Christmas dey approach.
