Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool-Betting Tips

Spurs take on Liverpool this evening at White Hart Lane knowing that a win will propel them closer to the Champions League places. Here are a few tips if you are a Spurs or Liverpool fan.

Tottenham Hotspur

Gareth Bale has been deceptively effective in his 13 league appearances for Spurs so far this season. He has scored five goals and has had a staggering 45 shots in total across all 13 matches. He looks a very good bet at 8/1 with BetVictor or Bet365 to score the first goal of the game.

Spurs have been a little inconsistent at home this season but they do not get beaten badly when they do lose at White Hart Lane. The recent away form of Liverpool has produced draws against Newcastle, Chelsea and Swansea City which suggests any win for Spurs will be a narrow one. A 1-0 home win is 10/1 with BetVictor.

Liverpool

Liverpool are likely to resist the urge of flooding forward immediately in this game because Spurs are bound to start quickly. Expect Liverpool to soak up any pressure and then get into the game as the match goes on. Blue Square are offering 11/2 that the first-half of the match will be drawn with Liverpool stealing a late winner in the second.

In the same way that a narrow Spurs win is likely, Liverpool have an equally good chance of a slender victory. Bet365 will give you odds of 7/2 that if Liverpool are going to win this game, it will only be by a single goal. A two goal winning margin for Liverpool sees the odds jump to 13/2.

Match Bets

If you fancy Luis Suarez to have an absolute blinder then you can get 40/1 from BetVictor on the Liverpool striker to score a hat-trick, Tottenham’s Jermain Defoe is available at 33/1 but it will take an abysmal defensive display from either side for this to happen.

Liverpool are odds on at 8/11 with Bet365 to be the first team with a player in the referee’s note book. As Liverpool are likely to be chasing the game in the first 20 minutes then this is a highly likely option depending on how lenient the referee feels through the early part of the match.

If you’re a Liverpool fan and you just want a little bit of insurance then you can get 8/15 from Blue Square on your side winning the match starting from one goal in front. Liverpool have only lost one game away from home this season which was on the opening day suggesting this is a great bet if you have some cash to invest.
