The Matchday 15 of the Premier League (PL) will see two heavyweights clubs of English football lock horns at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Spurs and Liverpool go head-to-head. 

Having lost their last two PL games, Liverpool will have points to prove as they make their way to the capital while Spurs on the flip side will try to open a 13-point gap against Liverpool if they win on Sunday (November 6). 

With huge consequences resting on the fixture, the clash promises to be a mouth-watering affair in the English capital.

• Liverpool have lost only once against Spurs in the last 10 years and that defeat came in October 2017 in a 4-1 win at the Wembley Stadium
• The rivals famously met in the 2019 Champions League final where the London side lost 2-0 in a one-sided contest
• A win for Spurs will see them go on 29 points, 13 clear of Liverpool

Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool Head to Head 

One of the ever-present fixtures in the PL era Spurs and Liverpool have shared a great rivalry over the years, but it is the team from Merseyside that has dominated the fixture. In 60 PL meetings between the sides, Liverpool have won 29, including 12 wins in the last 19 PL meetings. Liverpool’s biggest away win against Spurs came in December 2013, which happened to be Andre Villas-Boas’ last match as Tottenham manager as they lost 5-0.

Spurs however can take advantage of the nasty Liverpool form and inflict a third straight PL defeat on the 2020 PL champions with the home crowd behind them. Liverpool also have a good away record at Spurs, having won 10 times against the London side in 30 visits.

As things stand, Spurs have 26 points from 13 matches which include eight wins and two draws. Last week they came from 2-0 down to win 3-2 to show good character and Antonio Conte will be hoping for the same this time as well.
