Liverpool are winless in their last five; Tottenham have taken 7 points from their last five. The visitors bring the sharper form into this EFL Cup tie.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
Liverpool create chances worth 1.5 a game (and give up chances worth 1.4), leaving them +0.1 a game on the balance. Tottenham create 1.2 (giving up 1.0) for a balance of +0.1. The chance quality on both sides is remarkably similar. There's nothing to split these two underneath.
Liverpool average 1.9 goals per game and Tottenham manage 1.6. Combined that's just 3.4. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
Liverpool are all-out attack: 1.9 goals a game, but they leak 1.9 at the other end. They'll throw plenty at Tottenham, but there are gaps at the back for the visitors to get at.
In the last 10 meetings: Liverpool have won 7, Tottenham 2, with 1 draw. These fixtures average 4.4 goals per game. 8 of the last 10 produced 3+ goals. Both teams have scored in most of their recent meetings, so there's a good chance both find the net again. Recent results: Liverpool 1-1 Tottenham, Tottenham 1-2 Liverpool, Liverpool 5-1 Tottenham, Liverpool 4-0 Tottenham.
Most likely scorelines: 1-1 (10%) and 1-2 (9%).
