Tottenham Hotspur is facing a bad record. If they lose against Liverpool, Tottenham will lose four consecutive league games in 20 years.

England's "BBC" introduced several records ahead of the 36th round of the Premier League match between Tottenham and Liverpool at Anfield in Liverpool, England, on the 3rd. The media reported that Tottenham's situation was not good, saying, "Tottenham is on the verge of losing four consecutive league games for the first time since losing six games in October and November 2004."

Tottenham won 2-1 against Liverpool in October. Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp's killer Son Heung-min scored one goal and Liverpool failed to overturn its numerical inferiority as two were sent off.

The situation is different now. Tottenham has lost three consecutive games in the league. After losing 0-4 in an away match against Newcastle United on the 13th, they lost both the North London derby against Arsenal and the London derby against Chelsea.

He showed disappointing performance both in attack and defense. In attack, he scored only two goals during the three-game losing streak, showing poor scoring ability. Tottenham's troubleshooter, Son Heung-min, is tied to the opponent team, and Tottenham remains silent. Son recorded only one shot on goal during the three games. He scored in the match against Arsenal, but it was a penalty kick.

Son Heung-min has shown sluggish performance, but his strikers have shown lackluster performance in general. James Madison, who played MVP-class in the first half of the year, has yet to recover his performance since suffering an injury. Madison, who has never been excluded from the starting lineup, started playing on the bench in the last match against Chelsea, even though he was not injured.

On the defensive end, they are showing tremendous weaknesses in set pieces. A series of derbies with London clubs saw Tottenham collapse due to set pieces. They lost 2-3 against Arsenal, conceding two runs at the corner, and 0-2 against Chelsea, conceding two goals at the free-kick level.

According to the soccer statistics magazine "Squaka," Tottenham lost 22 goals in set piece alone this season. This is the third highest record following Nottingham Forest (26 goals), which ranks 17th overall in the relegation zone, and Sheffield United (23 goals), which have been confirmed to have been demoted. The expected number of goals lost (xG) in set piece is 15.66, which is the second highest after Manchester United.

Several players, including captain Son Heung-min, Dejan Kulusevski and Pape Sarr, point out that the problem with our team is set piece, but Coach Anji Postecoglou countered, saying that set piece is not a fundamental problem. The problem with set piece is a problem that can arise in a game situation.

Tottenham has lost three consecutive games, and its gap with Aston Villa, the fourth-place team that qualified for the UEFA Champions League, has widened by seven points. Villa, which has three league games left, can shake off the pursuit of fifth-place Tottenham and confirm fourth-place on its own if it wins only two games. For Tottenham, it should only hope that Villa will slip after winning as many points as possible in the remaining four league games.

However, it is not easy to play in the remaining matches. Starting with a match against Liverpool at the third place, the team will meet Burnley at the 19th and Manchester City at the second place, which are competing for relegation. As the final match is Sheffield, where relegation has been confirmed, victory is expected, but three matches are a problem. If done wrong, Tottenham will be able to tie with the record of six consecutive wins in the league 20 years ago, going beyond four consecutive losses in the league.
