Liverpool vs Tottenham: Prediction, tickets, team news, live stream, TV, H2H, betting - Premier League preview

Jurgen Klopp and Mauricio Pochettino face off at Anfield this afternoon as Liverpool and Tottenham go head to head in a huge Premier League clash on Merseyside.

Liverpool's perfect League record ended last weekend as the Reds drew 1-1 against Manchester United at Old Trafford, though Adam Lallana's late goal made the result feel more like a win as the Klopp's men lead the table by three points - and with a game in hand over Manchester City.

In contrast, Spurs sit 13 points behind Liverpool after just nine games, with a 7-2 home humiliation against Bayern Munich not exactly helping matters either.

Pochettino's position at the club has been called into question, though the coach insists his players are united behind him - and they have the perfect chance to prove it at Anfield.

There is also the added incentive for Spurs to gain revenge for their Champions League final heartbreak, and to prove that night in Madrid was not the peak of this current squad's powers.

Prediction: Liverpool 2-2 Tottenham

The hosts are favourites given their domestic dominance so far this season, while Spurs are in the doldrums and already 12 points off the pace - but look a little closer, and this match should be tighter than you think.

Spurs are on the up after an ego-boosting win over Red Star, while Liverpool are in cruise control but yet to hit their top form. If Klopp's side turn in another performance like the one at Old Trafford, Spurs could sneak a result.
