Date: Sunday, March 31
Time: 11:30 a.m ET | 17:30 CLT
Location: Anfield
Odds: Liverpool -190 / Tottenham +500 / Draw +330
Liverpool: Just win has to be this team’s mentality here, and they hope to have Trent Alexander-Arnold and Xherdan Shaqiri, who are in a fitness race. Expect the Reds to come out flying, looking to play the ball down the wings and then into the feet of their attackers, with Spurs liking to get their outside backs forward.
Tottenham: It’s a big week for Spurs. After this game against Liverpool, they’ll open up their new new home, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. But focus needs to turn to just getting results. One win out of their last five has put them in jeopardy of falling out of the top four. At the moment, the team is just one point above fifth place.
