Liverpool vs Southampton betting tips: Premier League preview, predictions, team news and odds

Liverpool are favourites to beat Southampton 3-0 at 17/2.

Nathan Jones takes over at Southampton after Ralph Hasenhüttl's departure. The Saints are in the relegation zone, while Liverpool kick off in eighth place. Liverpool have won just three of eight league matches since the start of September. They have beaten teams who finished first, fourth and seventh last season. Liverpool won on the road for the first time in Premier League last Sunday.

Liverpool are looking to avoid back-to-back Premier League home defeats for the first time since September 2012.

Liverpool are preparing for the game against Southampton. Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Darwin Núñez will lead the line. Calvin Ramsay, Stefan Bajcetic, Bobby Clark, Layton Stewart and Melkamu Frauendorf will start. Ibrahima Konaté will partner Virgil van Dijk at the back.

Nathan Jones' first game in charge of Southampton is difficult to predict. Juan Larios could keep his place at right-back. Armel Bella-Kotchap will start at centre-half. Ché Adams has scored the winner in both of Saints’ away victories this season. Liverpool vs Southampton odds: 3.00 (2/1) or higher.
