Both Teams to Score: Yes<\/strong><\/td>\n4\/7 @ SBK<\/a>
(63.6%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBoth teams possess strong attacks but leaky defences, making BTTS highly probable. Liverpool has scored 26 goals with a high 26.29 xG , but has conceded 24 goals . Tottenham has scored 25 goals but conceded 21 . Both sides average over 1.3 goals conceded per match, while both also average over 1.5 goals scored per match. This offensive firepower against defensive fragility strongly supports goals at both ends.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Hugo Ekitike 2+ Shots On Target<\/strong><\/td>\n2\/1 @ SBK<\/a>
(33.3%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nThe bet is strong due to Ekitike’s high-volume, high-quality shooting against a defense that is vulnerable to central attacks.\nEkitike, a Liverpool forward , averages 0.9 SoT per 90 . Crucially, 5 of his 9 total SoT this season have come from inside the box , demonstrating high-quality chances. His recent form is excellent, with 2 SoT in the 4-2 win over Bournemouth and 4 goals in his last two Premier League games .\nTottenham’s defence, while better than some, still concedes 47 total SoT . Their vulnerability lies in the central channel, which Ekitike will exploit. His current form and central positioning make 2+ SoT a high-probability outcome.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n
