Liverpool take on the visitors Tottenham in the second leg of English Football League Cup. First Leg result 0-1.The match will be played on Thursday, February 6th at Anfield (Liverpool).
Liverpool looks like the strongest club in England — if not the world. The Reds lost Jürgen Klopp in the summer, the manager who restored the club’s former glory over a decade at Anfield and finally delivered a long-awaited Premier League title. Before leaving, he secured the League Cup and guided his side to a top-three finish, as planned, before stepping down. However, his replacement has been nothing short of outstanding—under Arne Slot, the team hasn’t just maintained its level but has arguably become even more dominant. Liverpool was flawless in the Champions League group stage, though they did slip up against PSV in the final round while fielding a heavily rotated squad. Domestically, they may not have a perfect record, but they remain in control at the top of the Premier League table. Their only real blemish so far has been the 0-1 defeat in London, which slightly mars Slot’s otherwise stellar start. Their attacking depth and defensive solidity make them a force to be reckoned with in all competitions.

Tottenham have struggled to put together two strong seasons in a row. Even last year, Ange Postecoglou failed to secure a Champions League return, falling just short against a resurgent Aston Villa by a couple of points. And that was without Harry Kane, who left for Bayern Munich! Hoping to replace him, the club signed Dominic Solanke and had ambitious plans for the new campaign. However, their season has been derailed by a bizarre number of injuries, making it difficult to find any consistency. As a result, they have suffered numerous defeats in the Premier League, including a shocking loss to Leicester after taking the lead. The only thing keeping them afloat is the presence of several struggling teams below them in the table. At least they managed to beat Brentford in the last round. Their Europa League campaign has been solid, with an early playoff spot secured after wins over Elfsborg. But their real lifeline has been the League Cup, where they eliminated Manchester City and Manchester United and hold a narrow advantage over Liverpool thanks to a single goal in the first leg in London. If they are to have any chance, they will need a near-flawless performance at Anfield.
Before the 0-1 loss in London last year, Liverpool had won both of their meetings with Spurs in 2024. The Reds are in exceptional form and could easily repeat their 2-0 victory over Bournemouth from the last Premier League matchday.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win with a -1.5 goal handicap.
