Liverpool vs Spurs: How you can pit player against player with Betfair's Build Ups

While Arne Slot’s men have been widely tipped to breeze past Spurs at Anfield, Betfair’s brand new Build Ups is keeping things interesting by allowing customers to pit player against player like never before across a range of outcomes.

Through Build Ups, you will be able to look beyond the scoreline and instead, with help from analytics company Opta, compare the performances of two players on the pitch.

It’s a new betting experience that puts opinions to the test. Perhaps you think Liverpool full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold is more creative than Spurs midfielder James Maddison? Or maybe you reckon Reds midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai is dirtier than notorious Tottenham hot-head Cristian Romero?

With Build Ups you don’t need to debate it. You can settle it.

Here’s how…

How do Build Ups work?

Build Ups allow users to choose between two players to go head-to-head on an outcome.

For instance, if a fan thinks Premier League top scorer Mohamed Salah will have more shots on target on Sunday than Spurs striker Dominic Solanke, they can pit them against one another in a match up and bet accordingly.

With Build Ups you can register standalone bets on who will score more goals, have more shots, have more shots on target, have more assists, commit more fouls and win more fouls, with plenty more outcomes to come.

So, whether you're tipping Djed Spence to win more fouls than Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo, or boldly backing Virgil van Dijk to outscore Spurs' Dejan Kulusevski, there are plenty of head-to-head battles to consider.

More information on Build Ups

It’s worth noting that for Build Ups to be settled as a winner, a chosen player must win. Should Salah have the same number of shots as Solanke in our aforementioned bet, then there is no winner.

All of the data used to settle bets comes courtesy of Opta, who provide accurate statistics on almost everything conceivable.

Build Ups are available 24 hours before kick-off, but not available in-play. Moreover, there is no cash-out option.

In turn, you can’t currently combine Build Ups into multiples, accumulators and bet builders.

Finally, should a player in a Build Up bet not start for any reason, then the bet is voided and the money returned to your wallet.
