Tottenham Hotspur: League leaders Liverpool would be wary of battling it out with Tottenham Hotspur in their Carabao Cup semifinal clash after engaging in a high-scoring goal-fest against Ange Postecoglu’s side two weeks back which saw Arne Slot’s side prevail 6-3. Slot remained adamant that it is important for his side to maintain their identity in the game and praised his opponents.
“I think what we expect before we go into the game is that two teams have such a clear identity and playing style, that is I think what most people expect to see tomorrow again as well. They have their identity, we have our own identity, and both teams trying to force that identity towards the other.
“Large parts of the away game two weeks ago, we could show our identity. But there were definitely also parts in the game where they showed how good of a team they are. Scoring three goals against us is also an accomplishment. I know we scored six in the game as well but scoring three against us, not many teams have done [that] until now,” said Slot in a press conference.
