Southampton looks to get back on track when they visit Liverpool. Southampton is coming off a disappointing 2-1 road loss against Norwich City last Saturday while Liverpool beat Arsenal 4-0 at home on Saturday. Liverpool is in second place in the Premier League standings with 25 points in 12 games while Arsenal is in fifth place with 20 points in 12 games.
The player to watch in this game is Mohamed Salah. Former Liverpool winger Luis Garcia recently backed Salah to improve his goalscoring record at Liverpool further this season: “He is becoming more and more important. He knows where he has to be. I think we can see a different Salah at the moment.” Salah has been on fire, with 11 goals in 12 Premier League games this season and he can be a difference-maker on Sunday. Let’s take a closer look at where the value is at in this matchup.
