Southampton vs Liverpool Preview
Southampton are one of the many teams who are currently involved in a relegation battle in the bottom half of the table. They picked up a hard-fought 3-2 win away to bottom of the table West Brom last weekend which puts them on 26 points, two points above the relegation zone. The Saints have three wins and three draws from their last six games across all competitions and will hope to continue this form into this match and take away at least a point.
Southampton have no new injury concerns but will still be without striker Charlie Austin who has been out since December with a hamstring tear. Manager Mauricio Pellegrino will likely name the same starting eleven that achieved victory over West Brom and hope for a repeat performance.
Liverpool could only manage a 2-2 draw with Tottenham on Monday evening after taking the lead twice. Jürgen Klopp’s men have struggled to hold onto leads on multiple occasions this season, dropping vital points in the title race. Liverpool are currently third in the league but only two points ahead of fifth-placed Tottenham. Klopp will be hoping for three points on Sunday to widen that gap given that Spurs have a tough match against London rivals Arsenal on Saturday. Defeat for Spurs and a win for Liverpool would be a huge boost in securing a spot in the Champions League next season.
Nathan Clyne remains injured for Liverpool and will not travel to St Mary’s Stadium while defenders Joseph Gomez and Ragnar Klavan are doubtful. Adam Lallana is back in training but it is unsure as to whether or not he is fit enough to start.

Southampton vs Liverpool Prediction
Nine out of the last ten Liverpool games have seen over 2.5 goals and we expect that to stat to continue after Sunday. They have also only failed to score two or more goals in one of their last nine Premier League matches, which was in their surprise 1-0 defeat to Swansea last month.
Southampton’s moral will be boosted by finding the net three times away to West Brom last week but we’re not confident their defence will be able to cope with the attacking threat of Mohamad Salah and Roberto Firmino who have 32 goals between them this season. We expect both teams to get on the scoresheet but with the visitors outscoring The Saints.
