Liverpool vs Southampton Preview - Southampton can score at Anfield
Liverpool are in excellent form, entering the EFL Cup third round on a six-match winning streak. Arne Slot’s side has been prolific in front of goal, especially at Anfield, while Southampton have struggled for consistency. Despite possible player rotations, Liverpool are expected to dominate, benefiting from their strong home record and recent head-to-head superiority. Betting on a Liverpool win with over 3.5 goals looks solid, given the teams’ attacking styles and recent scorelines.
- Liverpool have won 6 consecutive matches and look dominant.
- Southampton have struggled, with just 3 wins in 8 games.
- Expect a high-scoring Liverpool win; 'Liverpool & Over 3.5 Goals' is a strong tip.

Liverpool vs Southampton Tips
Liverpool have a very strong squad, so despite the likelihood of them resting players, I can't see them losing at home. That said, Southampton do offer a threat going forward, so BTTS may be a good option.
