Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction & Betting Tips – 15/09/2026

15 Sep 2026 Anfield Louis Hecq

Anfield plays host to a tasty Carabao Cup third-round tie on Tuesday 15 September, as Liverpool welcome Tottenham Hotspur under the floodlights. Both clubs enter this fixture under fresh stewardship, with Andoni Iraola and Roberto De Zerbi each navigating their opening months on Merseyside and in north London respectively. For Spurs, winless and languishing in 18th after three Premier League outings, a cup run could offer welcome relief. Liverpool, steadier at sixth, will fancy their chances of progressing on home soil in a competition they know well.

Match Analysis

Liverpool enter this Carabao Cup tie as clear favorites at 1.80, backed by five wins in their last seven meetings with Spurs and a dominant early-season form showing 2.0 league goals per game from Anfield.

  • 5 wins in 7 H2H meetings, including a 5-1 and 4-0 demolition of Spurs in 2025.
  • 2.0 goals per game and 61.7% possession in the Premier League underline Liverpool's attacking fluency.
  • Anfield fortress: Tottenham have won at this ground just once in the last seven visits.
  • Deeper squad rotation: Liverpool's absentees are notable but less structurally damaging than Spurs' crisis.

Tottenham arrive at Anfield in dire shape at 3.90, having scored zero goals in three Premier League games and suffering a severe injury crisis that strips De Zerbi of van de Ven, Bentancur, Odobert, Simons, and several key doubts.

  • 0 goals scored in 3 Premier League games signals a deep attacking dysfunction.
  • 4 confirmed absentees including van de Ven and Bentancur severely deplete squad depth.
  • 18th-place standing and zero wins reflect a confidence and cohesion crisis ahead of this cup tie.

Key point: With Tottenham unable to score in three straight league outings, the under 2.5 goals market at 2.45 offers an intriguing angle if Liverpool rotate heavily and control tempo.

Our Verdict

Liverpool's home win at 1.80 looks the standout selection here. The Reds have won five of their last seven meetings with Spurs, including two thrashings earlier in 2025, and Anfield remains a fortress few sides relish visiting. Tottenham sit 18th in the league without a single victory, while Liverpool's early-season solidity, six goals scored and just two conceded, underscores their superiority. With De Zerbi's men potentially blooding new signings like Marmoush and Savinho, expect teething problems. A Liverpool victory is our pick.
