Two Premier League giants meet when Spurs take on Liverpool. Opta tries to prise them apart.

'Liverpool have won 61% of their Premier League games in which Sadio Mane has started since the start of the 2016-17 season, compared to 40% when he’s not been in their starting XI.'

With Mane out, Spurs are 2.35/4 to win.

After a run of four wins and a draw between 2010 and 2012, Spurs are winless in their last nine Premier League games against Liverpool (W0 D3 L6). The draw is 3.65.

Liverpool are unbeaten in their last four away league games against Spurs (W2 D2), conceding just one goal in that time and netting nine themselves. They are 3.412/5 to win.

Wembley Stadium could become the 53rd different ground that Liverpool have won a Premier League game at - their current record of 52 is the highest of any club in the competition. Liverpool are 2.466/4 in the Draw No Bet market.

There have been 140 goals scored in Premier League matches between Tottenham and Liverpool, two goals shy of the current record set by both Everton/Man Utd and Chelsea/Tottenham (142). Both teams to score is 1.584/7.

This fixture has also seen a Premier League record of nine own goals scored - three of those were netted by Jamie Carragher in Spurs' favour, which is the same tally of goals that he scored for Liverpool during his 508-game
Premier League career at the club. Over 2.5 goals is 1.75/7.

After winning his first two meetings with Liverpool in March and September 2013 with Southampton, Mauricio Pochettino has failed to win any of his subsequent seven Premier League games against the Reds (D3 L4). Only against Chelsea (5) has he lost more Premier League games than versus Liverpool (4). The visitors are 1.768/11 in the Double Chance market.

Harry Kane hasn't scored in either of his Premier League home appearances against Liverpool (173 mins) - the only side he's faced more often without finding the net at home in the competition is Crystal Palace (three apps, 269 mins). Under 2.5 goals 2.3611/8.

Kane has had 28 shots (with 10 on target) in home Premier League games this season without finding the net. By contrast, in away games Kane has had 22 shots with nine on target and found the net six times. He's 1.845/6 to break his home Premier League duck.

Liverpool have won 61% of their Premier League games in which Sadio Mane has started since the start of the 2016-17 season, compared to 40% when he's not been in their starting XI. With Mane out, Spurs are 2.35/4 to win.

Since making his Premier League debut in September 2013, Christian Eriksen has been directly involved in more goals in the competition than any other midfielder (74 - 34 goals, 40 assists). Erikson is 4.35 to score.
