We fancy a one-sided encounter here and we will turn the focus on Bet365 and Cloubet for our Premier League predictions for this game.
SOUTHAMPTON
Southampton’s early promise this season turned out to be nothing more than fool’s gold. They have faded away badly with only the assurance that they are safe from relegation the only thing worth writing home about. They are in 15th place with 40 points and while they still be mathematically passed by both Burnley and Everton, they are guaranteed to finish above Leeds who are the other relegation candidates.
The Saints have really struggled with just 1 win in their last 11 league games. In particular, they have had nothing left in the tank on their away travels with their last outing ending in a 3-0 loss at Brentford.
Ralph Hasenhuttl will be hoping to arrest their terrible slide here but that’s going to be extremely difficult against a Liverpool side that were handed a new lease of life when Man City drew at the weekend.
LIVERPOOL
A 120-minute goalless encounter in the action-packed FA Cup Final on Saturday afternoon had to be decided on penalties. Jurgen Klopp’s side won the battle on nerves as Alisson’s save followed by Kostas Tsimikas cooly converted penalty ensured Liverpool hoisted the second trophy of the season in front of the packed Wembley Stadium.
With the domestic double in the bag, Liverpool’s quest for a historic treble continues as they now train their guns on the Premier League and the Champions League final that is to come. They are four points behind City but can cut it to one heading into the final matchday with a win here.
The Reds lost 1-0 here last season but they hit them back 4-0 at Anfield and will be keen to avoid another banana skin moment here heading to the final day.

SOUTHAMPTON VS LIVERPOOL PREDICTIONS
Liverpool will be fired up coming into this match after Man City dropped the ball at the weekend in drawing with West Ham. They dominated the reverse game earlier in the season and will be looking to replicate that performance here. The Reds are on a roll at the moment, particularly away from home where they are unbeaten in their last 16 straight encounters. These have typically been characterized by quick starts. We expect the same here and for our initial betting tip today we are backing them to win the opening half @ 1.86 with Cloubet.
Southampton have been a sorry side lately. Liverpool, despite not being at full strength is going to go all out at them and they are likely to dominate just about all aspects of the game. Liverpool’s Sadio Mane is a confirmed starter here and he will certainly have plenty of opportunities in this game. He does not shy away whenever those opportunities present themselves hence why we are backing him to take at least 3 shots attempts in the game @ 1.80 with Bet365 Bonus.
