Arne Slot's team is approaching the upcoming match on an impressive streak of six consecutive wins in all tournaments. However, it is alarming that many Victoria managed to get in the endings, the defense often fails.

Tip and bets

TipLiverpool with a head start (-2)

1.73

Liverpool have noticeably strengthened the squad on the eve of the new season, the competition for a place at the base is serious. It is not worth counting on the fact that the Merseyside reserve will play poorly today. Plus, Southampton doesn't show anything outstanding, even in the Championship they have won only one game in six matches. We do not think that the guests are ready to put up a decent resistance to the Premier League leader today.

Our betting tip is for Liverpool to win with an Asian handicap (-2) for a coefficient of 1.73
