The EFL Cup features another set of knockout matches this week as Tottenham Hotspur lock horns with Arne Slot's Liverpool side in a crucial semifinal fixture at Anfield on Thursday.

Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview

Liverpool are currently at the top of the Premier League standings and have been in exceptional form so far this season. The Merseyside giants eased past Bournemouth by a comfortable 2-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.

Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, are in 14th place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best this season. The North London outfit defeated Brentford by a 2-0 margin over the weekend and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Liverpool have thrived under Arne Slot but have a deficit to overturn going into this game. The Merseysiders have a storied history of comebacks in knockout competitions and will back themselves on their own turf.

Tottenham Hotspur have struggled this season but have shown signs of a resurgence over the past week. Liverpool are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to secure an aggregate victory in this fixture.
