Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are set to clash in the Carabao Cup third round on Tuesday at Anfield, with the two teams meeting five times without a win or goal this season. Liverpool, unbeaten under Andoni Iraola, have lost only two of their last 20 meetings with Spurs. Roberto De Zerbi's Tottenham, however, have been under pressure after four Premier League games without a win or goal.
Liverpool's team news includes Conor Bradley, Federico Chiesa, Hugo Ekitike, and Giovanni Leoni remaining sidelined, though Joe Gomez is back in training and available. Giorgi Mamardashvili is set to start in goal for Iraola after Alisson's absence. Tottenham will be without Sandro Tonali, Pedro Porro, and Dejan Kulusevski, with Richarlison also excluded. Destiny Udogie returns to contention and De Zerbi hints at no major changes despite mounting pressure.
In terms of form, Liverpool remain unbeaten under Iraola but have only won once in their last five matches, recently holding goalless at Fulham while Tottenham has been disappointing under De Zerbi, with no goals in four Premier League games following a summer transfer spree. The match will be broadcast live on ITV4 and Sky Sports Main Event.
