It has been a good week for Liverpool, beating Spurs and PSG. At home to Southampton on Saturday, games in the premiership are not predictable, but I am not expecting anything than a win here. My prediction: Liverpool 3:0Southampton. Other fixtures and predictions: Saturday 22/09/18 Fulham vs Watford 2:1 Burnley vs FC Bournemouth 2:2 Cardiff City vs Manchester City 0:3 Crystal Palace vs Newcastle United 1:1 Leicester City vs Huddersfield Town 2:0 Liverpool vs Southampton 3:0 Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers 3:0 Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur 1:2 Sunday 23/09/18 West Ham United vs Chelsea 0:2 Arsenal vs Everton 2:0
Paul Merson has gone for home win: Liverpool v Southampton (Saturday, 3pm) Liverpool were outstanding against Paris Saint-Germain, outstanding. They made PSG look terrible - there is no chance they [PSG] can win the Champions League. I switched the Southampton v Brighton game off at half-time thinking it was dead and buried, Brighton were atrocious and Southampton were much improved. But then I woke up to images of Glenn Murray celebrating on the Sky Sports app and wondered how that had happened? I couldn't believe it. The Saints should have won that game but I don't see them having a chance against Liverpool. They look very good, they are all playing well. PAUL PREDICTS: 3-0 (6/1 with Sky Bet)
LAWRO HAS GONE FOR HOME WIN: please log in to view this image Liverpool v Southampton The big bonus for Liverpool from Tuesday's Champions League win over Paris St-Germain has to be Daniel Sturridge's performance, because he did really well. People were telling me afterwards he could have had a hat-trick but I was delighted for him that he got one goal - you have to remember how little he has played for the first team recently. There is always the caveat that he has to stay fit, but if he can avoid getting injured then we know how good he is. please log in to view this image After having Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in town in midweek, this game might not have the same glamour about it for Liverpool, but it is still one they need to win and Jurgen Klopp will not accept any drop in effort. The Reds are on a real high at the moment and I think they will make it six wins out of six in the Premier League. Lawro's prediction: 3-0 Jessica's prediction: 3-0
