Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur live updates — By Nick Mendola

Slot tugs the heartstrings

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson start at full back in an ode to years past. Both have started plenty this season, but being on the pitch from the open sure seems a nod to their careers, too.

Spurs midfield in focus

Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall together in the midfield is a fascinating twist to this affair, as Spurs are hoping it’s a pairing that could be in lilywhite together for a long time.

Alisson, Robertson, Konate, Van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold, Gravenberch, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Gakpo, Salah, Diaz

Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur preview — By Joe Prince-Wright

After Arsenal slipped up in midweek and drew with Crystal Palace, Liverpool now just need one more point to win the title with four games to go. Arne Slot’s side have been taking care of business, winning six of their last seven games in the Premier League as everybody expected their league form to dip after they lost in the League Cup final and were knocked out of the Champions League. That didn’t happen as their 1-0 win at Leicester last weekend put them on the brink of the title. Everybody expects Liverpool to seal the deal on Sunday and it will be one big celebration at Anfield as they will equal Manchester United’s record of 20 top-flight titles.

Spurs’ sorry season in the Premier League sees them on 37 points, way below the standards they’re used to as they’re basically guaranteed to finish in the bottom half of the table. Even amid all of the injuries which ravaged his squad this season, Ange Postecoglou is under serious pressure. The Australian coach saw his side lose 2-1 to Nottingham Forest on Monday in a game which summed up Spurs’ season. They dominated play and created numerous chances but weren’t clinical enough in attack and were punished for some sloppy defending. Spurs’ season hinges on the Europa League and they host the first leg of their semifinal against Bodo/Glimt next Thursday.

Liverpool team news, focus

Slot will go with his strongest starting lineup to get the point Liverpool need to seal the title and he will then give plenty of key players a rest in the final weeks of the season. They deserve it. Mohamed Salah probably won’t want a rest as he continues to chase numerous records in terms of goals and assists. Fit-again Alexander-Arnold could start after coming off the bench and scoring the winner at Leicester last weekend and it will be an emotional next few weeks for him as the star right back is expected to join Real Madrid when his Liverpool contract expires this summer.

OUT: Joe Gomez (thigh - MORE)

Tottenham Hotspur team news, focus

Spurs’ injury issues have finally calmed down and for Ange it is now all about making sure his players are in the best possible shape for their Europa League semifinals. There will be pressure on Spurs to not lose all of their remaining Premier League games this season but the truth is they are all-in on the Europa League to win a trophy and qualify for the Champions League next season. Remember: Ange always wins a trophy in his second season, mate. It would be foolish of them to risk big players against Liverpool, with influential center backs Romero and Van de Ven likely to be rested. Spurs are hoping captain Heung-min Son has recovered from his foot injury to play some part ahead of the Europa semifinals.

Ange Postecoglou reaction — How did Spurs boss react to finish-challenged loss to Forest? - NBC Sports
Description

The storyline of Tottenham Hotspur’s 2024-25 Premier League season is consistent in its madness, as Ange Postecoglou oversaw another game in which both teams scored and his side came up short.

Down 2-0 after less than 20 minutes, Spurs huffed and puffed but only found a Richarlison second-half goal en route to a 2-1 loss to top-five chasing Nottingham Forest on Monday in North London.

MORE — Recap, video highlights from Spurs 1-2 Nottingham Forest

Spurs held more than 70% of the ball and out-attempted Forest 21-4, churning up a xG advantage of 2.12-0.64. Somehow, they lost again.

Tottenham’s scored and lost 11 times in the Premier League this season. How did Postecoglou view the latest example of this phenomenon?

Ange Postecoglou reaction — How did Spurs boss react to finish-challenged loss to Forest?

Verdict on the game? “It’s disappointing, a game we should never lose — another one we let slip. Our football was outstanding aside from the goals we conceded. This is the sort of year. We conceded poor goals and gave ourselves a mountain to climb.

What was missing? “Concentration and focus for every minute of the game we had Thursday night we didn’t seem to have at the beginning of the game. You can’t give teams two-goal starts,

Performance was good: “On the balance of play we didn’t deserve to lose. Our football was good but that’s been our problem all year. There have been too many games we’ve lost in that manner and that’s why we’re in the position we’re in.”

Building on Europa League win: “We wanted to maintain momentum and we missed that opportunity.”

Making halftime subs and trying to keep players available for UEL semis: “It’s a bit of a balancing act and we have to be smart about what we do. We have to be ready for Thursday in a week with our players healthy.”

Tottenham Hotspur look to keep their levels up when they host fourth-place Nottingham Forest in North London on Monday.

Spurs are into the semifinals of the Europa League, closing in on a title despite living deeeeeep down the Premier League table in 15th place. Ange Postecoglou, as he’s famously noted, has a habit of winning trophies in his second seasons at a club. Will his Spurs keep their focus in their surprisingly low-consequence Run-In to the league?

WATCH – Spurs v Nottingham Forest

Forest were in Spurs’ position last season but have surged up the Premier League table, their 57 points 20 more than their Monday hosts.

In third place for most of the season, Forest have sunk two points behind Newcastle and are just two points above Man City. With Chelsea and Aston Villa just one point behind City, Champions League qualification is very much in question for Nuno Espirito Santo.

Tottenham Hotspur are down to perhaps their final 90 meaningful minutes of the 2024-25 season on Thursday, as Ange Postecoglou’s side needs a win away to Eintracht Frankfurt to reach the semifinals of the Europa League.

The two sides drew 1-1 in north London last week — a disappointing result for the Premier League side, but their better overall performance (bar the only few minutes) in quite some time — putting Spurs’ trophy chase on thin ice. Winning in Frankfurt will be no easy task, as Eintracht have only last three times at home this season (all in the Bundesliga) and drawn just once in the Europa League, back in September on matchday 1. Spurs, meanwhile, have won just three of their last 11 away games (3W-0D-8L in all competitions). Strength vs weakness, no doubt about it.

Sunday’s 4-2 defeat to Wolves was a demoralizing blow for a team that had, for the most part, kept their belief and togetherness throughout the tough times this season. Individual errors by Cristian Romero, Lucas Bergvall and Guglielmo Vicario handed Wolves three of their four goals on a silver platter and left the manager with more questions than answers after the game. On the plus side, center back Micky van de Ven was rested at the weekend while midfielder Dejan Kulusevski came off the bench after missing the previous seven games due to a foot injury.

A truly miserable season offers Tottenham Hotspur and Ange Postecoglou one last chance for redemption: the Europa League, where the Premier League’s 14th-place side can still qualify for next season’s UEFA Champions League and perhaps save the manager’s job.

Up next in the quarterfinals is Eintracht Frankfurt, who are already on pace to qualify for the Champions League as they sit 3rd in the Bundesliga with eight games left to play (the top four all qualify). Domestic results have, however, suffered a bit since Omar Marmoush joined Manchester City for $72 million during the January transfer window. Prior to his departure (with 15 goals and 9 assists), Eintracht had won three straight league games, yet they have won just three of 10 since (3W-3D-4L). With Marmoush, they were the 3rd-best attacking side in the Bundesliga (42 goals in 18 games. Without him, they are only 9th (13 goals in 10 games). 22-year-old French forward Hugo Ekitike has stepped up with five goals and two assists in 13 appearances (all competitions) and World Cup hero Mario Gotze, now 32, has three goals in four games as well.

Only time will tell how much good came from Spurs’ 3-1 victory over last-place Southampton on Sunday, as they were comfortably the better side in the first half but couldn’t put the game away until the final seconds of stoppage time. Even the brightest spot on the day — Brennan Johnson’s first-half brace — turned dark as a squabble over the late penalty kick saw Mathys Tel score his first PL goal and Johnson sulk over not completing his hat trick. A sequence to succinctly sum up Spurs’ season. Just as fitting would be winning the club’s first trophy since 2008, finishing in the bottom half of the PL and a large portion of the fanbase wanting to fire the manager anyway.
