Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool
English Premier League, KO: 17:30 Sep 30, 2023, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
SPURS and Liverpool meet in what has the potential to be a real Saturday night cracker.
Tottenham Hotspur's new boss Ange Postecoglou has become the flavour of the month in English football after a superb introduction to the London giants.
The former Celtic treble winner has yet to taste defeat in 90 minutes in seven games and the entertaining football he's got Spurs playing won't come as a surprise to those fans north of the border, but it's certainly gone down well at a club who have been starved of success in recent years and stuck with boring football.
A trademark entertaining draw with North London rivals Arsenal last week added to his reputation and this will be another huge test.
Liverpool were in midweek Carabao Cup action against Leicester City, but Jurgen Klopp rested his big guns for this game in the capital. They still won anyway.
Klopp's side have carried on from their strong end to last season and have won five games in a row in the league as well as a Europa League stroll in Austria.
They look like they are capable of pushing Manchester City and Arsenal all the way and this will be a big indicator of that.
How the bookies view it
Liverpool are firm favourites here despite being away and William Hill's 6/5 is the best price for a win for the Reds.
Spurs will see plenty of backers at 2/1 with UniBet and the draw is 3/1 with bet365.
Recent head to heads
Liverpool did the double last season in a pair of 4-3 and 2-1 wins in what were entertaining clashes.
And Spurs have not beaten Liverpool in their last 12 games which includes a Champions League Final four years ago.
Players to watch
Heung-Min Son appears to have thrived under Postecoglou and without Harry Kane he is now their main man, as he showed last week with a double at Arsenal. He is 13/8 to score anytime on Saturday with William Hill.
You could argue the case for any of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez or Diogo Jota to be Liverpool's main goal threat with all three scoring against West Ham last week. Egyptian genius Salah is also 13/8 to score in London with William Hill.
Anything else catch the eye?
Ange Postecoglou could be about to see his unbeaten record go on Saturday and a solid Liverpool may just be too strong for his Spurs as they keep up a fantastic recent run against them.
Arsenal were left rueing plenty of missed chances last week and Spurs do offer them up. Liverpool's front three are more clinical than the Gunners and are unlikely to be as generous at the back.
The call is a Liverpool win and both teams to score at 23/10 with Boylesports.
And with these teams, the goals surely must flow. at both ends…probably right from kick off. Back bet365's 9/4 on both teams to score in the first half.
Over 4.5 goals is far from impossible too at 12/5 with bet365.
