Southampton – Liverpool, Prediction – Premier League

😐 Southampton have been stalling lately

Southampton made 0-0 with West Ham in their last game, but we didn’t see that much from the fierce and aggressive game of the Saints, especially in attack. This makes the 3rd consecutive game without a scored goal for Southampton and a total of 1 scored in the last 4 matches. The problems in attack are partly due to the poor form of Danny Ings, who was a main player in front positions for Soton during the season.

📉 Liverpool’s game has deteriorated sharply in the last two matches

Few have an explanation for Liverpool’s absurd results against West Brom and Newcastle, much less for the slow and extremely distracted play at times. Against the Magpies, Liverpool easily missed good chances, they were not precise in front positions, but Klopp himself was not very active from the bench and was often late with the substitutes or didn’t make any if we add the match with WBA before that. However, the good news for the Reds is that Thiago is back on the field, and Matip will be absent for about 2-3 weeks, not 3-4 months as the rumors suggested.

We will expect goals, because the Saints have a very strong attack

 Expert view: Liverpool is first, but the reality is that if United and City win their postponed matches, they will be equal points and respectively one point of the champions, so the battle for the title is becoming so interesting and contested at the moment. Liverpool’s volatility can be traced to several key factors, one of which, of course, is injuries. Now, however, when Thiago can finally play for a whole game, we will probably see a far more creative and precise Liverpool. However, the defense remains unstable due to the absence of the 3 main defenders, and Southampton still has a top attack, so our prediction will be – Both teams to score at 1.62.
