LAWRO HAS GONE FOR AWAY WIN:0:2

Southampton v Liverpool

Liverpool do not have much of a turnaround between Wednesday's Super Cup in Istanbul and Saturday's trip to St Mary's.

I still think the Reds will win on the south coast though.

I did not expect Southampton to win at Burnley last weekend but I was amazed by how ordinary they looked.
Whether Saints just had a bad day - like Watford did against Brighton - I don't know.

That is not something that seems to happen to Liverpool very often any more and, even if they do, they still seem to be able to nick a win, or a draw at the very least.

Jurgen Klopp's side were criticised for their second-half performance against Norwich, but they were 4-0 up at the break in their first game of the season. No wonder they switched off a bit.

Lawro's prediction: 0-2

Adam's prediction: 0-4

 

CHARLIE NICOLAS HAS GONE FOR DRAW: 2:2

Southampton vs Liverpool - Saturday, 3pm
I am not convinced by Liverpool this season. Are they going to be good enough for second? Yes they are. Liverpool cannot and will not be as good defensively - Alisson is out already, too. Southampton will be looking at different things and how to exploit this Liverpool team.
Virgil van Dijk still makes mistakes and is an elegant, beautiful footballer to watch, but he is expected to win headers and play how he does. I think Southampton, after the rotten result, will be at it here.

CHARLIE PREDICTS: 2-2
