Liverpool v Southampton match Preview
Even when they have a tough night they find a way…Liverpool were under the pump in Paris in midweek but still somehow came away with a win thanks to the brilliance of goalkeeper Alisson.
PSG gave Arne Slot the toughest test of his time in charge so far but the Reds found a late winner to put them in pole position to qualify for the last eight of the Champions League. Over to you, Southampton.
The Saints have picked up just nine points in a miserable season and still have work to do to not have the worst season in Premier League history. They’ve lost their last six visits to Anfield by an aggregate score of 19-1. They couldn’t – could they?

This could be a game for Slot to rest and rotate. Mohamed Salah had a rare off night in Paris but has scored or assisted a goal in 12 of Liverpool’s 13 Premier League games at Anfield this season so it would be a surprise if he missed out.

Cody Gakpo is doubt with a knock that forced him to miss the Champions League game while Joe Gomez and Conor Bradley remain sidelined.
Southampton full-backs James Bree and Kyle Walker-Peters are both doubts, while Ross Stewart and Ryan Fraser are definitely out.
