Liverpool tonight cannot afford another slip-up in their pursuit of Champions League football as they welcome Southampton to Anfield.
Late equalisers from Leeds and Newcastle may prove hugely costly come the end of the season, but Jurgen Klopp will tell his players that Chelsea - who are at Manchester City this weekend - can still be caught.
Southampton, one-time league-leaders this season, are in complete freefall but did beat Liverpool in January - can they put the final nail in the soon-to-be-dethroned champions’ coffin?

Liverpool vs Southampton score prediction
Liverpool should have no trouble seeing off a Southampton side who would firmly be in the relegation dog fight were it not for a good start to season.
Dropped points against Leeds and Newcastle were frustrating - though deserved in the case of the latter - and I can’t see Southampton holding up as much of a fight, or the Liverpool forward line being as profligate.
2-0 home win.
