Liverpool won their 10th EFL Cup by defeating Chelsea last season and will aim to extend their title tally this campaign. Their journey has seen them eliminate West Ham, Brighton, and Southampton.
Since their first-leg loss to Tottenham, the Reds have won five of their last seven games, with one draw and one defeat. This strong momentum puts them in a commanding position heading into the Liverpool vs Tottenham 24-25 Carabao Cup semifinal clash. Their excellence on all fronts has riled up the discussion of landing the treble or quadruple in the first tenure of Slot at Anfield. As a result, they now have the best odds for 24-25 EPL title among all leading contenders.
Joe Gomez has returned to full training and could make his first start of the year. Diogo Jota remains sidelined, while Curtis Jones’ availability is still uncertain.
With league hopes fading, Postecoglou must deliver in this competition to end Spurs’ 17-year trophy drought. Tottenham’s last silverware came in 2008 under Juande Ramos, and they’ve lost three finals since. This season’s semi-final run marks a significant improvement after early exits in the past two campaigns.
Spurs have overcome a challenging route, eliminating both Manchester clubs, including a thrilling 4-3 win over United. However, the reigning champions of Liverpool stand in their way. Since their first-leg victory, Spurs have lost three of seven matches. A resilient performance is crucial to securing a spot in the final.
Dragusin joins Johnson, Maddison, Vicario, Werner, Solanke, Odobert, and Udogie on Spurs’ growing injury list. However, Romero is back in training and could feature at Anfield.

Before their first-leg defeat, Liverpool had won four of their last five meetings with Spurs. Despite Tottenham’s narrow advantage, Anfield presents a formidable challenge. Liverpool are unbeaten in their previous 14 home encounters against Spurs. Also, they boast a 15-match unbeaten streak at Anfield. Conversely, Tottenham have struggled on the road, losing two of their last four away games. With Slot’s men scoring four goals in two of their previous three home matches, Liverpool are expected to raise the game’s tempo. So, we expect a victory with at least three goals from Liverpool in this clash.
