Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur History

Tottenham Hotspur was formed in 1882, 10 years before the founding of Liverpool. Spurs won a maiden FA Cup title in 1901, the same year Liverpool were crowned First Division champions for the very first time.

Neither club enjoyed overwhelming success in the first half of the 20th century, though they both began to emerge as title contenders in the 1960s. It was then that the Reds finally got their hands on the FA Cup for the first time in addition to a couple of league titles under manager Bill Shankly, while Spurs celebrated a further three FA Cup successes led by Bill Nicholson, who remains the club's longest-serving and most decorated manager to date.

Bob Paisley, who was assistant to Shankly and later named as his successor, guided Liverpool to heaps of silverware in the 70s and 80s. The Reds captured European glory on three occasions under the tutelage of Paisley, as well as six First Division titles and several other major honours. Liverpool defeated Tottenham in the 1971 FA Cup quarter-finals, but ultimately lost to Arsenal in the final.

The Reds were a dominant force in the final years before the Premier League was established in the early 1990s, but they had to wait three decades to become champions of England once again in 2020.

Spurs, meanwhile, have been particularly shy of silverware for the best part of the last 30 years, with just two League Cup triumphs since 1992.

A number of players have previously been on the books of both these clubs, namely:

• Former England goalkeeper Ray Clemence made a total 665 appearances for Liverpool. He played a vital role under both Shankly and Paisley, winning multiple major honours in his 14-year stay at Anfield. Clemence left for Spurs in 1981 and remained in north London until retiring six years later.
• Ronny Rosenthal, a 60-cap Israel international, joined Liverpool in 1990 and then signed for Tottenham in January 1994.
• Jamie Redknapp spent 11 years as a Liverpool player, making more than 300 appearances for the Merseyside outfit, before returning to boyhood club Tottenham in 2002.
• Liverpool acquired United States goalkeeper Brad Friedel during the 1997/98 season, though he mostly played second-fiddle during his time at Anfield, featuring just 31 times for the Reds. Friedel moved to Spurs in 2011, aged 40 at the time. He earned 82 caps for the USMNT before hanging up his gloves in 2015.
• Former Republic of Ireland captain Robbie Keane played more than 300 times for Tottenham. He had a brief spell at Liverpool in 2008/09 prior to a return to north London. Another striker who represented both these teams is former England international Peter Crouch.

Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur Head-to-Head

These teams have contested no fewer than 180 competitive matches.

One of the most memorable editions of this fixture would be Liverpool's 4-0 demolition of Spurs during the 2013/14 Premier League season. Luis Suárez, Philippe Coutinho, and Jordan Henderson were all on the scoresheet as the Reds earned a resounding win at Anfield.

Liverpool defeated Tottenham by the same scoreline in November 1997 with Jamie Redknapp and Michael Owen among the scorers that day.

In more recent times, these teams played out a thrilling seven-goal encounter towards the end of the 2022/23 Premier League campaign. The hosts were three goals to the good inside the opening 15 minutes, though Spurs mustered a commendable comeback and drew level through Richarlison in second-half stoppage time. Remarkably, within seconds of the restart, Diogo Jota restored Liverpool's advantage to ensure Jürgen Klopp's side bagged all 3 points.
