Can Liverpool Secure the Title?
As the stage is set for an electrifying match, **Liverpool** hasn’t dazzled fans with lopsided victories lately. Out of their last eight matches, they’ve secured seven wins, most of which have come with a single-goal margin. This streak suggests we might witness a similarly tight result in this crucial title decider.
With **Arsenal’s draw against Crystal Palace**, just a point is all the Reds require to clinch the Premier League title, and they’ll be eager to do it on their home turf at **Anfield**. With an impressive home record of 12 wins out of 14 in the league, the Reds aim to finish the job strong. Nevertheless, their last ten encounters saw only two matches surpassing 3.5 goals, and don’t forget Spurs have historically posed challenges, claiming victory against Liverpool three times in the last decade. The potential absence of **Son Heung-min** could further tilt the scale in Liverpool’s favor.
- **Bet 1: Liverpool and under 3.5 goals @ +165 with bet365**
Tottenham’s Quest for Goals
Despite the recent turbulence under **Ange Postecoglou**, Tottenham remains a side that can score. Although they’ve only managed to buck the trend by winning three out of their last ten outings, they’ve still found the back of the net in seven of those matches. Remarkably, **61% of their Premier League games** this season have featured goals from both teams.
The looming Europa League semi-final provides a flicker of hope for the Spurs, suggesting they may not go all out against Liverpool—but they will certainly attempt to capitalize on the Reds’ vulnerabilities in this critical matchup. Our predictions reflect a belief that Spurs still have something to offer on the scoring front.

A Strong Finish from the Reds?
When it comes to second-half performances, the **Reds** shine like no other. With a staggering **42 goals** scored after the break this season—a figure significantly ahead of their nearest competitors—they’ve also maintained a solid defense, allowing just **15 goals**.
On the flip side, Spurs excel during crucial match moments, having registered **17 goals in the final 15 minutes** of games. With a history of cautious tactics away from home, they need to find a way to penetrate Liverpool’s defense, regardless of how slowly they get into rhythm.
If we analyze first-half performances, Liverpool sits third in the league standings, a stark contrast to their second-half dominance, where they’d be **19 points clear** of the second spot if only those stats were considered. With a title on the line, expect Liverpool to put forth their best late-game effort.

Form Analysis: A Tale of Two Teams
Years have passed since Liverpool last tasted a Premier League title, but the dream of claiming it at **Anfield** is within reach. With **six consecutive home wins**, their form suggests they’re well-positioned for success, not having lost at home since **September**.
However, Tottenham’s inconsistency tells a different story. While their Europa League adventure breathes some life into their season, their league performance has left much to be desired. Following a disheartening loss to Nottingham Forest, Tottenham risks finishing with their lowest league standing in **three decades**.
