After both have started out the season in good form, Liverpool and Spurs go head-to-head at Wembley on Saturday this afternoon.
Jurgen Klopp’s side will look to continue their searing hot start with wins already over West Ham, Crystal Palace, Brighton, and Leicester City.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side will want to continue their run of good form with recent wins coming against Fulham, Newcastle, and most notably, Manchester United. The spotlight will be on Spurs wingbacks this weekend as they face the unenviable task of keeping the lid on one of the most potent Premier League attacks in recent memory.

Question 1 – What will the result be?
With Liverpool’s attack looking as strong as ever, it seems easy to pick Liverpool to win again on Saturday. However, Spurs only concede one goal per home match against Liverpool and will have newfound confidence after beating Manchester United at Old Trafford three weeks ago.
Tottenham will also be buoyed by the potential inclusion of winger Son Heung-Min after his return from national team duty.
Question 2 – How many goals will be scored?
In their 11 previous meetings, the two clubs have averaged a total of 3.06 goals. Tottenham average three goals per game at home this season and with Liverpool averaging two goals per away game this season, a high-scoring affair seems likely.
Question 3 – Pick a player to score anytime
Although it is hard to ignore the likes of Harry Kane, Mohammed Salah, or Sadio Mane, the best value here might be Lucas Moura. The winger has looked dynamic this season, even in a slightly more central role then some might have expected after his move to England.
Question 4 – How many corners will be taken?
In the 40 total Premier League games played so far, an average of 9.58 corners was per game and there should be no reason for deviation come Saturday. In a more uptempo game, expect the corner count to rise slightly past the average.
Question 5 – Pick one of these events to occur
This question offers more freedom but the option for there to be a penalty scored seemingly has the most attractive value. Referee Michael Oliver has awarded a penalty eight times over the course of 30 matches he officiated last term and considering the speed of the wide players involved in this game, there may be a fair number of last ditch challenges.
Question 6 – Pick a player to be carded anytime
Due to the pace of the game, a number of tactical fouls will likely be committed in the centre of the park in order to prevent the back line being put in a difficult position. Moussa Dembele seems as likely as anyone to commit a cynical foul to stop an attack and end up in the book for it.
Question 7: In which minute will the first goal be scored?
While both teams boast a strong counter attack, it seems more likely that Tottenham have the greater portion of possession to start but Liverpool hit back on the counter – they have led at half-time in their last five Premier League matches.
