Already the 27th round of the Premier League will take place this weekend. This article deals with the game between Southampton and Liverpool. The team from the south of England is currently in 15th place. After all, six points have been earned in the last five games. Things are different with Liverpool. The squad of Jürgen Klopp has an excellent run and meets at least twice in each game. Especially the Egyptian Salah causes a stir on the island. The betting odds on an away win are in a solid range. Liverpool will also provide a spectacle in this game.

Southampton is not on a green path this season. Especially the November and December of the past year were the purest horror for the fans. In eleven games, the team earned only seven points. On Matchday 22, the South of England were in 17th place – tied with Stoke City, which was on the first relegation place at that time. Southampton developed a small cushion by improving their performance in recent games. Nevertheless, they are still in a relegation battle. Only two points separate the saints from a relegation place. In the home game against Tottenham a point was won. After just 15 minutes, the home team took the lead. Only three hand turns later Kane made up for. Although the Londoners had much more possession and also more offensive actions, Southampton prevented further goals.

In the FA Cup Southampton survived the previous rounds with 1-0 successes. In the second round, West Brom – another team from the relegation battle awaits. Thus, the South of England can make real chances to reach the quarter-finals. Only Crystal Palace beat Southampton this year. The other six opponents did not succeed in this endeavor. We believe that Liverpool will overtax the Southampton defensive.

Liverpool are currently scoring 59 goals – behind Manchester City – the second-best offensive in the league! Especially the top scorer of the Reds is currently convincing. Mohamed Salah has already scored 22 goals in 26 season games. He also celebrated five goals in the Champions League. Last weekend, he sent Anfield into ecstasy. Already in the third minute he exploited his first chance. A bad pass from Tottenham found the direct route to the striker. Salah pushed the ball freezing past the goalkeeper into the goal. In the first second half of the second half, the Egyptian showed his full class. He danced five Tottenham players and sank the ball ice cold for the meantime 2: 1. The defensive of Liverpool was overtaxed in some sections of the game. Jürgen Klopp’s broadcast showed that it was not just the defensive that made mistakes. Rather, the two penalty kicks by Referee Moss caused a shake of the head. This was not the first game in which the Klopp team gave the fans a highlight. In mid-January, Liverpool beat Manchester City – the first English team this season. This was followed by a bad week for the Reds. The away game against Swansea and the FA Cup game against West Brom were both lost. The attack on Mane, Salah, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Firmino will also cause a stir in this match, securing Liverpool’s three points.
