Liverpool vs Southampton Predictions

Liverpool have played a lot of recent matches and are missing a lot of first-team stars through injury. The depleted Reds can still edge out of form Southampton, albeit in a less dominant manner than previous home wins.

Liverpool have won 11 of their last 13 matches in all competitions. The Reds also sealed FA Cup victories against Arsenal (2-0) and at home against Norwich (5-2) in this period.

Liverpool Injuries & Team News

Midfield duo Ryan Gravenberch and Wataru Endo were injured in the EFL Cup final and are doubtful.

Defenders Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joël Matip and first-choice goalkeeper Alisson are out.

Midfielders Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcântara, Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai are also ruled out.

Striker Diogo Jota is also unavailable due to injury.

Southampton Form

Southampton’s recent form has tailed off following three defeats in four matches. The Saints were unbeaten in 25 and sealed FA Cup victories against Walsall (4-0) and Watford (3-0) in this spell.

Russell Martin’s side lost 3-1 at Bristol City before hitting back at West Brom (2-0). This victory was followed by back-to-back losses to Hull and Millwall (2-1).

Southampton conceded on five minutes against Millwall and Che Adams equalised on 34 minutes. The Saints dominated with 80% possession but conceded the winner just before half time.

Defender Juan Larios and forward Ross Stewart are out.

Verdict

Liverpool v Southampton
