Ange Postecoglu’s Tottenham make the trip to Anfield this Sunday to face Liverpool as they continue their pursuit of 4th placed Aston Villa and that illustrious final Champions League position.

The Reds have scored in 15 of their 17 home games this term and Spurs have scored in 14 of their 16 games on the road so we expect there to be goals in this clash, particularly in the 2nd half, where both sides have scored the majority of their goals this campaign.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have scored almost twice the number of goals after the break in matches this season, with 51 of their 77 goals (66%) coming in the 2nd half of fixtures.

As for Spurs they have scored 43 of their 67 goals (64%) after the half time interval and given the magnitude and need for a win for both sides we can expect an open and attacking game especially as the full-time whistle gets closer.

The graphic below shows Liverpool and Tottenham’s statistics for goals scored per every 15 minutes in the Premier League this season.

Klopp’s side have scored a staggering 35% of their total goals in the league this season between the 76th-90th minute and for Spurs they have scored 25% of their goals during this time.

Liverpool have shipped almost one fifth of their goals in the 76th-90th minutes of matches and for Spurs this is even higher, with nearly a quarter of their total goals conceded happening in this late stage of games.

BetWay are offering 1.95 on the Highest Scoring half being the 2nd half and it looks difficult to argue against this paying out given how both teams matches have played out this season.

Another betting market which looks of value is the match result draw and both teams to score.

25 of Tottenham’s 33 matches this season have ended in both teams scoring and for Liverpool it’s 24 of their 35 games where this outcome has occurred.The graphic below shows Tottenham ranked 2nd and Liverpool 3rd for the number of games where both teams have scored.

11 of Liverpool’s 17 fixtures at Anfield have ended this way and for Spurs in 10 of their 16 games away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this has happened.

Furthermore, in each of the last 6 games between the sides and at Anfield, both teams have found the back of the net, with one 1-1 and one 2-2 draw happening in the last 4 meetings between the sides.

Bet365 are offering 5.75 on both teams to score and match result draw and we believe given what’s at stake for both sides there will be goals and they might just cancel each other out and end up sharing the points in this one.
