Liverpool vs Southampton Premier League Prediction Match Details
The Premier League action continues on Saturday at noon as high-flying league leader Liverpool welcomes relegation-battling Southampton at Anfield Stadium. Can the league leader extend their dominance at the summit?
Liverpool Preview & Form
Liverpool continues to dominate with form across all competitions as they come into this weekend’s Premier League games on the back of an incredible six-match unbeaten streak, winning four and playing two draws. Arne Slot’s side, in their midweek Champions League round of 16 first leg clash against French giants PSG, claimed a shocking 1-0 victory at Paris thanks to an incredible goalkeeping performance from Alisson Becker and Harvey Elliott’s late winner goal. They will return to the Premier League in a great hunt to continue their 24-match unbeaten streak in the league, recording 17 wins and seven draws. The last time out in the Premier League the Reds claimed a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United at Anfield to move 13 points clear of second place Arsenal at the summit.
Arne Slot’s side has remained a strong side to reckon with at Anfield Stadium, having remained undefeated in the league since suffering a shocking 1-0 defeat against Nottingham in the early season of the league. They have won each of their three consecutive home games, with two or more goals scored in each of the games.
Southampton Preview & Form
Southampton are seemingly doomed to get back to the Championship next season, as the Saints have now lost each of their last three league matches and have nine defeats in the last ten league matches. Ivan Juric’s team has the worst defense in the Premier League this campaign, as they have conceded 65 goals so far this season. The last time out in the Premier League, the Saints were thrashed 4-0 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. The defeat was the 22nd loss of the campaign as they remained rock bottom of the Premier League with only nine points, 13 points off the safety zone.
Ivan Juric’s side has only won one away game since returning to the top division this season, and the victory was against their fellow struggling Ipswich Town. They have lost 11 of their last 13 away league matches with two or more goals conceded in eight of those games.
