High-flying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/pep-lijnders-rb-salzburg-manager-sacked\/\">Liverpool<\/a> are top of the Premier League with 11 wins from 15 games, and have only been beaten once in all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>Arne Slot&#8217;s imperious Reds have won six from six in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/bukayo-saka-brace-leads-arsenal-to-monaco-win-as-gunners-maintain-100-home-record-in-the-champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a>, and top that table as well.<\/p>\n<p>A frustrating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/liverpool-2-2-fulham-highlights\/\">2-2 draw with Fulham<\/a> last time out has slowed their domestic momentum, but Liverpool are still two points clear of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/enzo-maresca-chelsea-premier-league-title-race\/\">Chelsea<\/a> with a game in hand.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal and Manchester City&#8217;s poor recent form has left the title race looking like a straight fight between the Reds of Liverpool and the Blues of Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>But first, Slot&#8217;s side must negotiate a Carabao Cup quarter-final against manager-less Southampton.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/russell-martin-sacked-southampton-tottenham\/\">Saints sacked former boss Russell Martin<\/a> just hours after losing 5-0 at home to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/southampton-vs-tottenham-highlights-premier-league-spurs-smash-saints\/\">Tottenham<\/a> on Sunday night. They were 4-0 down after just 25 minutes, and looked like a side that had completely given up.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We can confirm that we have taken the difficult decision to part ways with our Men\u2019s First Team Manager, Russell Martin.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SouthamptonFC\/status\/1868419516142952754?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\">\n<p class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\">Both the manner and frequency of such results had left the Southampton board with no choice but to part ways with the coach that brought them back to the top flight via the Championship playoffs last season.<\/p>\n<p>It was a sad ending to what had started as a great relationship. But football is a results business, and nowhere is it more ruthless than the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>Southampton have won just once all season and sit rock-bottom of the table, nine points from safety.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear if they will have a new manager in place by Wednesday&#8217;s cup match. But whoever comes in will need to quickly sure up their incredibly porous defence if they wish to avoid another embarrassing thrashing on home turf.<\/p>\n<h2>Southampton Vs Liverpool Team News<\/h2>\n<p>Alex McCarthy keeps his place inbetween the sticks, despite the expected return of Aaron Ramsdale.<\/p>\n<p>Captain Jack Stephens will serve the last match of his three-game ban after his red card against Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>Southampton&#8217;s Interim manager Simon Rusk has opted for strong starting eleven, including Tyler Dibling, Taylor Harwood-Bellis<\/p>\n<p>For Liverpool, Andy Robertson is suspended after being sent off at the weekend. Alexis Mac Allister is back from his ban, though, and the midfielder will start as Slot rotates his squad ahead of tougher fixtures.<\/p>\n<p>In goal, Alisson has been rested for Caoimhin Kelleher &#8211; who has played so far in this competition. Arne Slot has rested both Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk once again.<\/p>\n<p>All three of Ibrahima Konate, Conor Bradley and Kostas Tsimikas are still out, so Joe Gomez and Jarrell Quansah will start at the back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Southampton Vs Liverpool Confirmed Lineups<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Southampton: <\/strong>McCarthy; Bree, Wood, Harwood-Bellis, Bednarek, Manning; Aribo, Downes, Mateus Fernandes;, Dibling, Archer<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liverpool: <\/strong>Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Endo, Gomez; Mac Allister, Nyoni, Morton; Elliott, Gakpo, Nunez<\/p>\n<h2>Southampton Vs Liverpool Prediction<\/h2>\n<p>Damage limitation could be the order of the day for Southampton. They did give Liverpool a decent game in their 3-2 Premier League defeat just a few weeks ago, but that feels like lightyears ago after recent hammerings.<\/p>\n<p>Arne Slot will probably rest and rotate his stars, but even a second or third-string Liverpool should comfortably put away this rudderless and downcast Saints side.<\/p>\n<p>The freedom of a shot-to-nothing in the cup might allow Southampton to play with more freedom, but a shock win seems well beyond them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prediction: Southampton 1-4 Liverpool<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<footer class=\"entry-footer clear-both\">\n<div class=\"related-posts\">\n<div class=\"news-widget widget widget_latest_news_feed_widget\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/footer>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here\u2019s our Southampton Vs Liverpool preview, prediction, team news and confirmed lineups ahead of Wednesday\u2019s Carabao Cup quarter-final at St. Mary&#8217;s.
