A mouth-watering clash awaits us at Anfield on Thursday night when Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur meet in the second leg of the English League Cup.
Spurs hold a slim 1-0 lead from the first leg thanks to Lucus Bergvall's late goal at Hotspur Stadium, but not many believe the Lilly Whites can go all the way to the final.
Mohamed Salah and Co have been the best side in Europe this season. The Reds finished top of the new Champions League phase with just one defeat in eight games and have lost just as many in the Premier League. Arne Slot's side will go into Thursday's clash full of confidence after beating in-form Bournemouth 2:0 in the league last time out and the Reds also won their last three home games by a combined score of 10:2.
Tottenham Hotspur have had a mixed bag of results since beating Liverpool in the first leg of Thursday's tie. The Lilywhites beat Tamworth in the FA Cup third round a few days after that win, before losing three successive league games. They have bounced back well in their last two games, with Ange Postecoglou's men beating Elfsborg and Brentord 5:0 on aggregate in the Europa League and English top flight, respectively.
Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
While the first leg ended in a one-goal affair, a lot has changed since then, especially for the visitors, who are without more than five big names through injury.
Liverpool scored at least twice in three of their last five games and both of their home games in that period have ended with 3+ goals.
Tottenham's recent games have also been very entertaining. Bets on over 2.5 goals have won in six of their last seven matches, with the Lilywhites conceding at least two goals in four of those encounters.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur prediction: 3-1

Liverpool team news
Trent Alexander-Arnold is a doubt for Liverpool this week after being forced off with an injury just after the hour mark against Bournemouth in the league last weekend.
Mohamed Salah's brace last time out took his tally to 25 goals in all competitions this season and the Egyptian King should lead the line against Spurs.
Joe Gomez (hamstring), Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones (both muscles) won't be available for the Reds this week due to injury.
