Liverpool welcome Tottenham to Anfield for a massive EFL Cup clash on Tuesday night.

Written by the BettingEdgeHub desk, 13 September 2026

Anfield hosts a major cup tie on Tuesday evening as Liverpool take on Tottenham in the EFL Cup. Both sides enter this fixture following frustrating draws in the Premier League over the weekend. Bettors have plenty of promotions to look at across the sports schedule ahead of kickoff.

Betting odds and market movement

BetUS prices a home victory at 4/5 for punters backing the hosts. That short price makes Liverpool the clear favorites in the betting market. Tottenham drift out in the odds because of their poor start to the season and lack of goals.

Recent form for Liverpool

Liverpool managed a strong comeback win against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last week. However, they struggled to find any fluidity in a scoreless draw against Fulham on Saturday. The hosts have only collected a single point from three of their opening four league matches under their manager.

Tottenham struggles continue

Tottenham remain in a public crisis after avoiding relegation last season by a narrow margin. Roberto De Zerbi watched his team play out a scoreless draw against Everton over the weekend. Spurs have failed to score a single top flight goal in their opening four matches.

Team news updates

Liverpool remain without Hugo Ekitike due to a serious Achilles tendon injury. Conor Bradley and Joe Gomes also miss out for the home side with long term fitness issues. Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez and Alexis Mac Allister should return to the starting lineup.

Tottenham selection issues

Mykhailo Mudryk is sidelined after picking up an injury shortly after his debut appearance. Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert also miss this fixture with long term knee problems. Tosin Adarabioyo and Marcos Senesi could both make their first starts for the visitors.

Head to head history

Liverpool have only lost two of their last twenty matches against Tottenham across all competitions. The home side also boast a strong domestic unbeaten record at Anfield stretching back to February. Spurs have not won a competitive match at this stadium since May 2011.

What it means for a bet

Backing Liverpool at 4/5 offers short value for punters while Tottenham drift in the market due to their scoring drought.
