Tottenham vs Liverpool Prediction
For their sheer will, and determination, shown all through the season, Liverpool deserves the trophy. Even more so, after their heartbreak at this very last stage, last year.
It has to be said that Liverpool has a more balanced and in-form team. Spurs, meanwhile, have some major injury concerns.
Both teams are on equal level after their unbelievable comebacks in semifinals.
Coming to h2h ties, Liverpool takes the cake. They won both their league meetings this season, and nine of the last ten wins went to them as well. Going on, Spurs could return just a single clean sheet from 15 attempts and conceded two or more goals in five of their last six encounters.
Also, Tottenham has just two wins to their name in their last eight matches and lost five of them too. Liverpool, on the other hand, lost just once from their last 23 attempts and won 13 of their last 14 ties as well.
As such, expect the Reds to lift the trophy at the end of the day, and put an end to their barren run without a major achievement in quite some time.
