Liverpool will take on Southampton on Saturday in 2019/20 Premier League as the season moves ahead. The Reds start this game as the favourites.
Kick-off : 3:00 PM (Local)
Venue : Anfield, Liverpool
Liverpool are nearing their first ever Premier League title win in the modern era and I think they will continue playing that winning way.
The Reds are needless to say top of the table after 24 matches with 70 points. The goal difference is +41.
Southampton at home should be a regular win for Liverpool until something extraordinary happens.
Jurgen Klopp will use similar tactics as in his previous games and will attack and keep a clean sheet at the back.
On the other hand, Southampton are having an OK season in 2019/20 Premier League and they will look to get positive results.
The Saints are currently 9th in the table after 24 games with 31 points. The goal difference is -11.
Everybody knows Liverpool is tough to touch at the moment so Southampton will have to have a miracle to win this one.
Ralph Hasenhuttl should deploy tactics of attack as anyways they are gonna get rolled over, why not go down attacking.
Liverpool have a good record against Southampton and they will look to continue the good work.
