Liverpool and Tottenham face off today knowing that a victory for either side will land a huge blow to their opponents’ chances of qualifying for European football.
Spurs finally resembled a coherent football team in the second half of their 2-2 draw with Manchester United on Thursday, fighting back from two goals down in Ryan Mason’s first game back in the caretaker manager’s seat.

Liverpool vs Tottenham prediction
Tottenham are finally flickering back to life under the stewardship of Mason, but a trip to Anfield is always a tough assignment – Spurs haven’t won there in more than a decade – so this may be a step too far, too soon.
Liverpool have won three on the bounce and are looking more like themselves, they should edge a tight game.
A 2-1 win to Liverpool.
