At the legendary and iconic Anfield Stadium, one of the most thrilling Carabao Cup semi-finals is set to take place. Liverpool will host their rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, who surprisingly won the first leg 1-0. Despite the first-leg defeat, the Reds have all the tools to overturn the result and aim for back-to-back Carabao Cup victories. Arne Slot’s team has been nearly unstoppable, as evidenced by their six-point lead at the top of the Premier League (with a game in hand) over Arsenal and their first-place finish in the Champions League group stage. This season, more than ever, Liverpool seems capable of going all the way in every competition—they are still in the race for the FA Cup as well. Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, has been underwhelming in the Premier League but has had a solid European campaign, securing a direct spot in the Europa League Round of 16. Thanks to their first-leg victory, they now have their sights set on the Carabao Cup, a trophy they last won in the 2007-08 season. Postecoglou’s squad knows that this away game is an almost impossible challenge, but they will fight hard before conceding to Liverpool.

 

Liverpool's shape and key statistics

With their 2-0 victory over Bournemouth, Liverpool secured their 17th Premier League win of the season. Unless there is a sudden collapse, Slot’s team is on track to win their 20th league title. Their last match was decided by a brace from the ever-reliable Salah, who, despite uncertainty over his contract renewal, has already scored 25 goals this season.

Liverpool has won their last four Carabao Cup home matches and remains unbeaten at Anfield in their last 15 games across all competitions (13 wins, 2 draws). In the Carabao Cup, they have an average of 2.5 goals scored per match and 1.25 conceded. In the Premier League, they boast the best attack, with 56 goals in 23 games, averaging an impressive 2.47 goals per game.

 

Tottenham Hotspur's shape and key statistics

Tottenham Hotspur ended a four-match losing streak in January with a 2-0 away victory against Brentford, securing their first Premier League points of 2025. Their disappointing domestic campaign—currently sitting 14th, 14 points behind the sixth-place team—has been contrasted by strong performances in cup competitions, where they have won four matches in January alone across the Europa League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup.

Ahead of their clash with Liverpool, Postecoglou will take confidence from his team’s improving defense. Spurs have kept four clean sheets in their last eight games, including the first leg, where Bergvall’s late goal secured their victory. Their attack remains productive, averaging 2.2 goals per game (while conceding 1.4) in their last five matches across all competitions.

 

Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction and Tactical Overview

The second leg of this Carabao Cup semi-final features two attack-minded teams, making it highly likely that this will be a goal-filled and action-packed encounter. Liverpool, needing to overturn a deficit, will press hard from the start.
