Football – England Premier League

Venue: Anfield

In today’s soccer/football analysis and prediction, we will be giving our direct analysis/verdict of this game between Liverpool and tottenham. Liverpool and Spurs are meeting in this exciting match as they are currently on top of the table with same points (25-25). What is certain in this match, is that Liverpool will have majority of the ball possession a lot more as Spurs rely on counter attacks .

Practically, I think A.Robertson will play the full 90 minutes almost 100% sure as even the second left back K.Tsimikas is injured.

Liverpool´s full backs are important in their game and they are quite often with the ball.

In their last game against Fulham, Robertson had 82 passes.

I would be surprised if Liverpool didn´t have at least over 60% of the possession and Robertson playing the 90 minutes should secure him over 68.5 passes.

Furthermore, we’re already in Round 13 and we still haven’t seen a single Premier League game in which the full-time result was the exact opposite of the result after 45 minutes. If there’s a game that seems like the one in which it might happen, it’s this one.

The list of reasons is long, starting with the fact that Tottenham is the best half-time team in the league. The Spurs had a lead at the 45-minute mark on 7 occasions this season (out of possible 12). Five of their Premier League games saw a draw at half time, while there wasn’t a single game in which the Spurs were losing at half time.

The second reason is that Liverpool is the best team in the Premier League when second-half performances are concerned. The Reds have outscored the opponent in the time range of 46-90 min. on 7 occasions this season, with 4 draws and 1 loss.

Another reason why I think Tottenham might score in the first half is that they did it in their previous two Premier League games. In fact, in those games, the Spurs only scored in the first half.

Why I think Liverpool have the power to overturn the result is that they’re playing at home, in front of their crowd. And they’re playing in honor of their former manager Gerard Houllier who died a few days ago.

Of course, the biggest reason why Liverpool will go for the victory is that they are playing against the team that’s just behind them in the standings. Beating Tottenham would mean one giant leap towards the title for Liverpool.

Liverpool probable starting lineup:

Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Fabinho, Matip, Robertson; Jones, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Mane.

Tottenham probable starting lineup:

Lloris; Aurier, Alderweireld, Dier, Reguilon; Sissoko, Hojbjerg, Ndombele; Son, Kane, Bergwijn.

The final reason why we might see Half-Time/Full-Time Tottenham/Liverpool is that the same thing happened the last time these two played at Anfield. The final score was 2-1 Liverpool, with Tottenham leading at half time.
