Southampton vs Liverpool match preview
This season has certainly not gone to plan for either of these two clubs, so a big summer lies ahead for both.
Southampton’s 11-year stay in the Premier League will come to an end after this fixture, with their relegation confirmed following their most-recent home game, a lifeless 2-0 defeat at the hands of Fulham.
Then, last Sunday, Rubén Sellés’ side lost again, this time swatted aside 3-1 by South Coast rivals Brighton at the Amex, with Mohamed Elyounoussi’s goal ultimately in vain.
That made it five successive defeats for the Saints, who’ve accumulated a measly three points from 12 outings since their most-recent win on 4 March.
Defeat here would result in their points per game total being a measly 0.63 which is, by some margin, the lowest in the club’s 137-year history, when accounting for two-points for a win.
Russell Martin will be Southampton’s manager next season but here, still led by Sellés, a 26th defeat of the season seems likely.
The Reds required a last-gasp equaliser from Roberto Firmino, appearing at Anfield for the final time, to salvage a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa.
Before this, Jürgen Klopp’s team had won seven on the spin, but this was only enough to see Liverpool climb up to fifth, emphasising how inconsistent they were in the eight months prior to this.
So, the Europa League will be returning to Merseyside for the first time since Klopp’s first half-season, with a big rebuild required at Anfield.
Here, given that Liverpool have won ten of their last 11 meetings with Southampton, including each of the last four, a high-scoring away win seems likely.
Southampton team news
The good news to come out of Southampton’s defeat in Brighton was the return of Tino Livramento, coming off the bench for his first appearance since suffering an ACL injury at the same ground 13 months earlier.
Key players such Roméo Lavia will surely move this summer, while could this be James Ward Prowse’s 409th appearance for the club, 12 years after making his senior debut?
Predicted XI (4-2-2-2): McCarthy; Bree, Lyanco, Bednarek, Walker-Peters; Lavia, Ward-Prowse, Alcaraz, Walcott, Elyounoussi; Aribo.
Liverpool team news
Liverpool meantime said goodbye to Roberto Firmino, James Milner, Naby Keïta and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain last weekend.
Firmino’s successor up front Cody Gakpo will continue to lead the line, with Luis Díaz on the left-wing as Darwin Núñez is out injured.
Mohammed Salah scored seven goals in his first six appearance against Southampton, although he’s since gone four matches without netting against them.
Predicted XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, van Dijk, Konaté, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Jones; Salah, Gakpo, Luis Díaz.
