Liverpool

The Merseysides played away in a 1:1 draw with Newcastle in the last round of the championship. This is Liverpool's second draw in a row with such a result. On a tour earlier, Jurgen Klopp's wards parted ways with Leeds.

Of course, the loss of four points could not but affect the standings of Liverpool. In the standings, the Lersisiders are now on the seventh line. Now the Reds have 54 points, which is seven less than the fourth Chelsea. The finish line for Klopp's charges is not so difficult. The only serious rival is the missed match with Manchester United. They also have to face West Bromwich, Burnley and Crystal Palace. However, the chances of getting into the Champions League are still not that high. You can now bet on such an event with odds of 3.24.

It should be noted that Liverpool quite unexpectedly lost too many points at the home arena. This unsuccessful streak began in mid-January with a defeat against Burnley. Moreover, before this failure the Merseysides had not lost at home in the English Championship in more than 60 matches in a row. However, in the last eight meetings at home in the Premier League, they managed to beat only Aston Villa, squeezing out the victory already in added time. In six more matches during this period, Liver lost and drew once. In terms of playing in their home arena, the Reds are now the seventh best in the Premier League.

Midfielder Jordan Henderson, defenders Joel Matip, Joseph Gomez, Virgil van Dijk, as well as striker Divock Origi and goalkeeper Kuivin Kelleher are not playing due to injuries.

Southampton

For Southampton the season did not go well too. In the last round of the championship, the Saints played at home in a draw with Leicester (1:1), thus closing two consecutive defeats in previous rounds from West Brom (1:2) and Tottenham (0:3). There was still an opportunity for Soton to win the FA Cup, but not so long ago they were eliminated from the tournament after being defeated in the semifinals by the same Leicester.

Ralf Hasenhuettl's charges were practically guaranteed to be registered in the Premier League. Despite the 15th place in the standings, Southampton are not ten points ahead of the relegation zone. Moreover, they played one meeting less than the group of outsiders.

On the road, Soton is one of the worst teams in the championship. The club have lost eight of their last nine matches on the pitch, beating only hopeless Sheffield United (2:0). Southampton are the most conceding away team of the current championship. On the rivals' fields, the “saints” have already conceded 38 goals, which is an absolutely the worst indicator.

Due to injuries, defender Ryan Bertrand, midfielders Oriol Romeu, William Smallbone, strikers Danny Ings, Michael Obafemi will not play in the match. Takumi Minamino is not allowed to play against Liverpool. So, what is the soccer bet prediction for today?
