Despite the sacking of their gaffer, we expect the home side to put on a formidable show against the English toppers. However, we forecast a win for the Reds looking at their recent indomitable run.

Match info: EFL Cup: Quarter-Finals

Venue: St. Mary's Stadium, Southampton

Date: Wednesday, 18th December 2024

Time: 9 pm Nigerian time

Life after Russell Martin will begin for Southampton when they welcome Liverpool to St Mary's in the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup on Wednesday.

Martin was sacked after a chastening 5-0 defeat at home to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Sunday, with Simon Rusk taking interim charge for the time being.

Head-to-head:

  • Southampton have won 30 of the 112 meetings between the two teams.
  • Liverpool have recorded 59 victories.
  • The remaining 23 clashes ended in draws.
  • Their last 6 encounters produced at least 3 goals in each.

Form:

  • Southampton in all competitions: L-D-L-L-L
  • Liverpool in all competitions: W-W-D-W-D

Team News:

  • Southampton will most likely miss the presence of Gavin Bazunu and Aaron Ramsdale in the upcoming match.
  • For Liverpool, Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley are set to miss the upcoming game.

Player(s) to watch:

  • Adam Armstrong has been a steadfast presence for the Saints through their highs and lows and a vital figure in their attack. He was their Supporters’ Player of the Season last campaign, and he still has his impact on the team.
  • Ryan Gravenberch has made 41 appearances and scored a single goal, yet his influence on the pitch transcends statistics. Known for his composure and versatility, he has become a vital component of Arne Slot’s squad.
