# Predicted XI – Southampton (H)

With the points on the board already, Liverpool are in pole position to secure a top-four finish and a place in next season’s Champions League in the process.

Given how close it is at the top, Liverpool really can’t afford to drop any points in their run-in which, on paper, is an absolute dream.

Next up for the Reds is the visit of a Southampton side who’re entrenched in mid-table and have very little to play for.

The Saints beat Liverpool over two legs in the EFL Cup semi-final back in January so they will be confident of getting the job done this weekend.

How will Liverpool line up against Southampton? Here is our predicted XI.
