LIV vs SOU Dream11: Liverpool had been due to face fierce rivals Man Utd last Sunday, however the game was postponed following pockets of United fans breaking into Old Trafford and invading the pitch in protest at the club’s current ownership. Therefore, Jurgen Klopp’s men have had a rare two-week break and will be itching to get out onto the pitch vs Southampton. The Saints showed real resilience in their most recent league game, holding Leicester to a 1-1 draw despite being reduced to ten-men just ten minutes into the match and whilst Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side are winless in their last four fixtures in all competitions, they certainly won’t prove pushovers at Anfield.
