Mo Salah netted in each half to inflict a first defeat in 12 on the Cherries.<\/p>\n<p>The Egyptian King will prove vital once again if Slot&#8217;s side are to progress to a record-extending 15th EFL Cup final. The reigning champions are also the most successful side in the competition&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, Slot will be keen to write himself into Merseyside folklore and go all the way.

Ironically, the Lilywhites last success came in this competition in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>Ange Postecoglou&#8217;s side will have to put in a Herculean performance to keep their hopes alive. Standing in their way are arguably the best team in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Lucas Bergvall made the difference in north London last month. The game itself was surrounded in controversy as the Swede was fortunate to be on the pitch after chopping down Kostas Tsimikas just before netting the winner.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs head to Anfield having won their last two in all competitions.

On the opposite flank, Arne Slot will need to determine whether Andy Robertson or Kostas Tsimikas makes the starting XI.<\/p>\n<p>In midfield, Curtis Jones will be pushing for a recall but may have to settle for a place on the bench again with Dominik Szoboszlai preferred to start alongside Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/radu-dragusin-injury-update-tottenham\/\">Radu Dragusin injury update<\/a> has come as a huge blow to <strong>Tottenham<\/strong>. The Romanian international will undergo surgery after tearing his ACL.<\/p>\n<p>Destiny Udogie,\u00a0Guglielmo Vicario,\u00a0Brennan Johnson,\u00a0Wilson Odobert, Timo Werner, Cristian Romero\u00a0and\u00a0Dominic Solanke are all still ruled out.<\/p>\n<p>On a brighter note, roadrunner centre-back Micky van de Ven is primed to start.
