Tottenham suffered a 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest last weekend
Liverpool have won nine of the last 13 meetings with Spurs
Recommended bet: Hugo Ekitike to score anytime
Just as it looked like Tottenham and Thomas Frank were getting back on track, they go and suffer a dismal 3-0 loss to Nottingham Forest.
That result leaves Spurs down in 11th place heading into this clash against Liverpool on Saturday evening.
Liverpool are building some momentum of late. Last weekend, the Reds defeated Brighton 2–0 at Anfield.
This came just a few days after an impressive away victory against Inter Milan at the San Siro and they will be confident of making it three successive wins when travelling to London this weekend.

Team news
Both Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr are on international duty and will be missing for the next few weeks for Tottenham.
Frank will also be missing long-term absentees Dominic Solanke, Destiny Udogie, Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison. However, both Radu Dragusin and Kota Takai are closing in on a return.
Arne Slot will be without Mohamed Salah, as the winger is representing Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations. Hungarian midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai missed last weekend and could be absent once again.
Wataru Endo, Cody Gakpo and Giovanni Leoni will also be unavailable for Slot.
The stats
Liverpool have dominated the head-to-head between these sides in recent years. Dating back to January 2020, the Reds have won nine of the 13 matches played.
Spurs have emerged victorious on just two occasions, with one of those wins coming in the EFL Cup semi-final last season before a 4-0 second leg drubbing.
Both teams have similar records in the Premier League this term. Spurs have scored 25 goals across 16 matches, conceding 21 in the process.
The Anfield side have found the back of the net on 26 occasions, while conceding 24 goals in their 16 matches.
Richarlison is Spurs’ top scorer in the top flight with six goals so far this term. For Liverpool, Hugo Ekitike has scored seven times in the Premier League following his summer arrival from the Bundesliga.
The Frenchman averages two shots per game for the Reds in the league and has registered a goal conversion percentage rate of 23 per-cent.

Prediction
Given how inconsistent both teams have been this season, predicting a winner of this clash is certainly difficult.
Delving deeper, the form of Ekitike could make all the difference for the away side as he has settled into life in England well.
With the chance to potentially move into the top four with a victory on Saturday evening, Slot will be looking for his players to make it three wins in a row.
Ekitike will be aiming to get on the scoresheet once again for the Reds. He has scored braces in his last two Premier League matches and the 23-year-old can put his name on the scoresheet against a Spurs side that struggles in the confines of their own home.
