Southampton vs Liverpool predicted starting XI; preview, prediction, team news, injury update and kickoff

Preview

Liverpool won the FA Cup on penalties on Saturday, giving them their second title of the season. They must now immediately turn around to face Southampton in the Premier League.

Southampton last played on May 7, losing 3-0 to Brentford, so they’ll be well rested. The Reds are set to rotate on Tuesday after suffering a handful of injuries and playing 120 minutes over the weekend.

Liverpool’s sole confirmed absentee for their trip to the south coast is Fabinho. Injuries forced Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Andrew Robertson to leave the FA Cup final. However, none of their problems are major, and the trio might be involved at St. Mary’s in some way.
