Tottenham v Liverpool: Why Wijnaldum odds can help Reds to keep up fine recent record

“With Vincent, he’s something different,” Denmark midfielder Eriksen told Sky Sports. “He loves to tackle, he loves to battle and he loves to play football.

“Of course it’s the beginning for him, he wants to show everyone that he can play football and he’s done that. For him it’s about getting his confidence and with a bit of luck he’ll be scoring.”

Tottenham v Liverpool produces big scores

Tottenham have failed to win any of their last seven meetings (D2, L5) with Liverpool, though, and that makes Jurgen Klopp’s crew tempting 19/10 chances for an away victory in north London.

If continuing to play as expansively and openly as the Reds did on their previous trip to the capital when they ran out 4-3 winners over Arsenal on the Premier League’s opening day, then this should be a fruitful day out for the Merseysiders.

Under Klopp this term, Liverpool’s approach seems to be a sureness of touch when it comes to outscoring the opposition. While their defence remains dodgy, the Reds have racked up some impressive results at White Hart Lane in the past three years.

Routs of 5-0 and 3-0 prior to last season’s goalless draw cannot be ruled out. A feature of such rampant scorelines was Liverpool’s ability to move the ball quickly through midfield, albeit under a different manager. Over 3.5 goals in Tottenham v Liverpool is also 19/10.

Wijnaldum odds in anytime market tempting

Wijnaldum, who already has a Reds assist to his credit, can help pull this tactic off again because he is a forward-thinking midfielder that will often look to feed Philippe Coutinho and company in attack.

Having struck twice against Spurs last term, Wijnaldum odds to score anytime are awesome at 11/2 if you’re looking for a bigger price punt on this match.

Although Mauricio Pochettino is playing with two deeper-lying midfielders in Eric Dier and Victor Wanyama, Wijnaldum got the better of both last term, also netting against the latter Kenyan’s former club Southampton.

Whether you’re piling on Janssen tips or taking those Wijnaldum odds, this delightful Dutch duo have all the ability and talent to steal the show on Saturday.
