Liverpool and Tottenham are not too big in quality difference and in only one match, difference from Liverpool good performances since the season starts can become nothing, if Tottenham can play with their best capacity.
Liverpool are starting to face threats from Chelsea in the hunt for the top of the standings, this game is very important for Liverpool who are trying to keep their distance from their rivals. Liverpool advantage in this match is because they have been very consistent in the last few matches, while Tottenham are still struggling to find their best form. Inconsistent Tottenham found it very difficult to match Liverpool strength, even though they were playing in front of their own fans, but that didn't help much.

From the odds displayed, we can easily predict that Liverpool is much stronger than Tottenham, acting as the host does not seem to provide much advantage for Ange Postecoglou and his team. Chelsea clearly hopes that Liverpool will stumble, thus making the points gap narrow again. Liverpool is actually still quite comfortable in leading the standings, because they have one postponed match against Everton. Tottenham should be worried about Liverpool current consistency, even though in the last match they managed to beat Manchester United.
Yea, you are actually right, being at home doesn't guarantee Tottenham Hotspur to be the favourite here and even the bookmarkers are very much aware of this, so the odds that was given to Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur speaks volumes on how they think this particular game might play out.
Though in my own opinion, I think that this game is actually going to be tight contested affair, so I am quite positive that both teams will score each other, but as of who is going to carry the day, that's what am not certain of, because I am very sure that both teams have the capacity and the attacking prowess to do the damage for their respective teams.
Then lastly, I believe that this is the first outing between arnes slot and this current Tottenham Hotspur manager, so I will be very much curious to know how both managers sets up their team for this game, so how they both set up their team for this game will play an important role in the final outcome of this game, that's what am quite positive on.
