Tottenham 1-0 Liverpool

Has Liverpool lost a truck like Manchester City? Liverpool did not play well in the last two matches. Manchester United was not in good form. Even then, Liverpool failed to win the Premier League home match. The match was drawn 2-2.

The semi-final of the EFL Cup was quite important for Liverpool. The opponent was Tottenham, a renowned team. This is true. However, in the last few matches, we have seen Tottenham's weak and irregular performance. I expected Liverpool to win this match. However, Tottenham won the match by a margin of 1-0. Liverpool's players played well. They created many attacking opportunities. But the attacking players completely failed to break Tottenham's defense. As a result, despite 7 on target shots, Liverpool's players could not score a single goal.

No, Liverpool have not lost their best form. It's just that Liverpool are maintaining the fitness of the players who currently have a very tight match schedule.
You may be surprised by the defeat, but I already had a previous thought that Spurs could beat Liverpool.
Believe it or not, this is only the 1st leg and in the 2nd leg Liverpool will advance to the final round by beating Spurs with a bigger score. Don't worry about Liverpool's current performance.

I think Liverpool is just unlucky and added Spurs defenders are very good in that match, I am still very optimistic in the second leg Liverpool can avenge the defeat even though they have to play away, considering the aggregate is very thin. Getting the EFL trophy will be very important for Arne Slot and his troops. My prediction is Liverpool will meet Newcastle in the final.

With the tight schedule this season, it is reasonable that some teams will choose to rotate their squads when they have the opportunity, and I think that is the step that Arne Slot is currently taking. It's just that the results aren't great because, for the second time, they got less than optimal results and even got defeated this time. But that's not the end because there's still a second leg, and at that time Liverpool will play at home, it seems that this is the reason why Arne Slot dared to rotate the squad.
