Liverpool can take another step towards the Premier League title if they beat Southampton at Anfield.

The Reds are already 13 points clear of Arsenal in the table, but will be keen to add three more to their tally, particularly with a big game against Paris Saint-Germain next week.

Arne Slot has a couple of tough decisions to make as he tries to navigate his side’s Treble run, but even by using his squad players, they have more than enough to get over the line here.

Southampton are all but relegated already, although are still playing for pride as they look to see the season out on a high.

Read on to see how both teams line up.
