When Tottenham Hotspur overcame nine-man Liverpool at home last season, courtesy of a last-minute Joel Matip own goal, the celebrations that followed were wild. It was only September 30 but with ‘Angeball’ all the rage, Spurs were understandably excited. Admittedly, they were second in the table and still unbeaten after seven games following the win, but their reaction prompted raised eyebrows from onlookers. But they also benefited greatly from a Luis Diaz strike infamously being incorrectly chalked off for offside by VAR, with the mistake was put down to ‘significant human error’. Evidently, that took nothing away from the celebrations…
Arne Slot praised Liverpool as they ensured they would be top of the Premier League table at Christmas – but expressed his frustration that Tottenham Hotspur were allowed a chance to get back into the game. The Reds delivered a 6-3 win over Spurs in what was an enthralling encounter in North London. The visitors took a 3-1 lead into half-time through goals from Luis Diaz, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai. Then in the second period, Liverpool’s advantage was extended through Mo Salah’s double to move him fourth on the club’s all-time scoring charts. However, Tottenham were given a…
With his side having emerged victorious by a tennis score, it is very much advantage Liverpool in the Premier League title race. Winning 6-3 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and becoming the first team in 27 years to net six away at Spurs, Arne Slot had plenty to be pleased about. Luis Diaz got things underway and ended up with two goals, Mohamed Salah got a brace inside seven second half minutes, and Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai scored from midfield too. All round, it was a superb performance from an opponent Tottenham simply couldn’t deal with on home…
A crucial mistake by the linesman during yesterday’s Premier League clash between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool has left Spurs fans and players seething. The error, which occurred in the first half, potentially cost Tottenham a goal and could have changed the course of the match. Replays showed that a Tottenham player was clearly onside when a through-ball was played, but the linesman raised his flag, incorrectly ruling the player offside. The decision was met with widespread anger and frustration from the Tottenham bench and fans. The incident occurred when Tottenham’s Harry Kane was played through on goal, only for the…
Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has been blown away by the performance of Trent Alexander-Arnold in the first-half against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. The right-back has been spraying passes across the North London pitch as Liverpool attempted to break down what has been a leaky home defence. Neville is on co-commentary duty for Sky Sports and was almost instantly impressed by Alexander-Arnold when, ten minutes in, he picked out a wonderful pass for Mohamed Salah. “The pass is brilliant. To get the ball into that space was literally amazing,” he exclaimed. However, the best was yet to…
Liverpool knew that they had a place at the top of the league secured for Christmas regardless of the result against Tottenham but didn’t play like a team that did. It was an electrifying first 45 minutes as the Reds put three goals past Spurs and all had meaning behind them. First was Luis Diaz who got redemption for last season’s VAR travesty that robbed him of a goal and this time it came as a header from a brilliant Trent Alexander-Arnold cross. Our vice captain has now had a hand in five goals across his last seven Premier League…

Liverpool’s Egyptian King, Mohamed Salah, is known for his clinical finishing and incredible speed.

The incident occurred in the 25th minute of the match, with Liverpool trailing 0-0 to a Spurs side that had been resolute in defense.

Manchester City’s struggles have given weight to Michael Owen’s bold pre-season Premier League prediction – which Liverpool will hope does not come true. Owen did not tip the defending champions to retain their title and did not believe the Reds would win the league either. Pep Guardiola’s team started the season as title favourites following their dominance over recent years. However, after their sixth league defeat of the season against Aston Villa, City could end Sunday 12 points adrift of the top spot. Liverpool can extend their advantage over the reigning champions with a win over Tottenham Hotspur while still…
Arne Slot has overseen a strong start to the season, and he could see his squad become only the third side in club history to reach Christmas without a defeat on the road. The Reds are the only team in England’s top five divisions to still be unbeaten away from home in the league. Should Liverpool avoid defeat, it will only be the third time in their history that they have reached Christmas Day in a season without having been beaten in a match away from home. In 1893/94 their first away loss came in the FA Cup in February…
