Bet on Southampton vs Liverpool

Easy Victory for Slot’s Reds

Russell Martin was sacked as Southampton boss on Sunday after the Saints suffered another embarrassing Premier League defeat. The final nail in the coffin was the 5-0 home reverse to Tottenham Hotspur.

The Saints have won four times this term, with three of those victories coming in the cup. Southampton have sealed their spot in the last eight by seeing off Cardiff City, Everton, and Stoke City.

Liverpool are flying in all competitions right now. The Reds are top of the Premier League and UEFA Champions League tables and are through to the quarter-finals of the League Cup. On their way to the last four, they have beaten West Ham United and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Liverpool are looking to pile more misery on the Premier League’s bottom side this Wednesday. As you would expect, the away team are the clear favourites to claim a cup victory.

Recent Southampton vs Liverpool Head-to-Head Meetings

Liverpool edged a five-goal thriller when the pair went head-to-head at St Mary’s in November. The Saints pushed the Reds close, but Mohamed Salah’s late penalty won the points for Slot’s troops.

Liverpool have a strong recent record against Southampton, winning six and drawing one of the last seven meetings. The Saints’ last victory in 2021 is their only success over the Reds since 2017.

Liverpool are looking to get back to winning ways after last weekend’s Premier League draw with Fulham. Southampton are hoping to start life after Martin with a positive result, but the Reds should ease to victory on the south coast.

Check out the tempting betting odds of 2.35 for Liverpool to win -2. The Premier League leaders scored three times at St Mary’s last month, and you can get 1.92 for the away team to score over 2.5 goals again.
