Southampton vs Liverpool LIVE!

Liverpool travel to St Mary’s knowing a win will open up an eight-point lead at the top of the Premier League. After Manchester City lost 4-0 at home to Tottenham on Saturday, Arne Slot’s side have a great opportunity to strengthen their title claims when they face bottom side Southampton.

The Reds have enjoyed a brilliant start to the season under Slot and will look to take full advantage of the latest slip-up by City. Victory on the south coast would leave Liverpool in a commanding position and make them strong favourites to win the title.

Southampton are finding life back in the Premier League tough and are four points adrift at the bottom of the table. Russell Martin’s side face another tough afternoon against a Liverpool side boosted by the fitness of captain Virgil van Dijk, who is available after withdrawing from the Netherlands squad over the international break.

Kelleher calls on Liverpool to keep foot on the gas

12:24 , Giuseppe Muro

Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher has told his team-mates they cannot afford to ease off after opening up a gap at the top of the Premier League.

A game against a Southampton side bottom of the table with only one win to their name this season is clearly one Liverpool should be winning, but bigger challenges await in the coming days with Real Madrid due at Anfield in the Champions League on Wednesday before Manchester City visit next weekend.

“After this last international break it’s quite intense now obviously with us playing every three days pretty much,” said Kelleher, who will keep his place in goal in the continued absence of Alisson.

“We’re not going to take anything for granted. I know maybe the outside is already making some noise about us being so far ahead in the league now, but we don’t really think about that.

“We know we can’t take our foot off the gas for one second because we’ll get punished. Our focus is on Southampton first and then trying to get some wins.”
