We have a full round of fixtures to enjoy in the Premier League this weekend including the meeting between Liverpool and Southampton at Anfield.
The hosts begin the weekend in 8th place on 19 points while the visitors are down in 18th place on 12 points.
Liverpool come into the game having defeated Derby County via a penalty shootout at home in the League Cup on Wednesday night.
Liverpool named a reserve team for the match and could not beat Derby County, with neither team finding the breakthrough. It was Liverpool who kept their nerve to win on penalties.
The victory means Liverpool have won each of their last 3 fixtures in all competitions. There have been wins at home over Napoli in the Champions League and away against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.
Form in the Premier League shows Liverpool have lost 2 of their last 3 matches. The defeats have come at home against Leeds United and away to Nottingham Forest.
However, in terms of home results in the Premier League, Liverpool remain difficult to beat and they have lost only 1 of their 30 most recent home league games.
Liverpool have been struggling to find the back of the net in recent home Premier League fixtures. They have scored just a single goal in each of their last 3 home league matches. Liverpool have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 home Premier League games.
Southampton make the trip to Anfield on the back of a penalty shootout victory at home over Sheffield Wednesday in the League Cup.
It was the Owls who opened the scoring after 24 minutes but Southampton equalised from the penalty spot. The match went to penalties and it was the Saints who came out on top.
That was the first game for Southampton since the dismissal of Ralph Hasenhüttl as manager. Form in the Premier League is why the Austrian lost his job and Southampton have won only 1 of their last 9 Premier League fixtures.
Their most recent result in the Premier League was a 4-1 loss at home against Newcastle United last weekend.
Away form in the league shows Southampton have lost 4 of their last 5 matches. Scoring goals on the road has been a big problem and Southampton have scored just a single goal in their 5 most recent away Premier League games.
Team news and Liverpool will be without James Milner, Naby Keita, Luis Díaz, and Diogo Jota due to injury. Joel Matip and Arthur are doubts.
Southampton travel without the injured duo of Juan Larios and Kyle Walker-Peters.
Liverpool will be wary of dropping points against a team in the bottom half of the table considering recent results.
However, managerless Southampton have been struggling to score goals when playing away and just a single goal should be enough for Liverpool to take maximum points.
