Southampton vs Liverpool Match Preview – Premier League Prediction & Betting Tips 24/11/2024
Southampton vs Liverpool Premier League Prediction Match Details
Premier League action will return with Matchday 12 this weekend as Southampton will welcome table-topper Liverpool on Sunday at the St Mary’s Stadium. Can bottom Saints buzz on the league leaders at home?
Southampton Preview & Form
Southampton’s dreams of playing in the top flight this season are beginning to look terrible, and they could see a potential return to the Championship if they fail to start picking up three points from their remaining. The Saints are on a terrible string of form, losing nine of their 11 league matches so far this season, and they have to wait until matchday ten to claim their first maiden victory of the campaign by beating Everton 1-0 at home. They then were beaten 2-0 by Wolves on the road in their last league game before the international break, which moved them to rock bottom of the league standings with four points and are four points away from safety. One major issue for the Saints in the top flight is their defense, as they have conceded 21 goals so far this season.
Russell Martin will be hoping his side’s last home victory in the league can boost their confidence in going head-to-head with the table topper. Historically, the Saints displayed excellent performance the last time they hosted the Reds, as they ended the game with a 4-4 draw.
Liverpool Preview & Form
Liverpool has been in flawless form under the management of Arne Slot and has also enjoyed success in all competitions this season. The Reds have proven to be a strong opponent to reckon with as they boost an impressive 15-win record from their opening 17 games in all competitions. Before the international break, Arne Slot’s men claimed a crucial 2-0 win against Aston Villa at Anfield to make it four consecutive wins. The Reds will be hoping to maintain dominance at the top of the league standings as they are five points clear of Manchester City, having accumulated 28 points from a possible 33.
The Reds have also displayed their dominance in their road trip games, as they have won seven of their nine away games this season. Liverpool have scored two goals in five of their six Premier League games.
