Liverpool vs Southampton Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Liverpool’s defense despite the countless injuries have managed to put up a decent performance this season. Betting on them to keep a clean sheet at odds of 2.05 (betway) against a weak Southampton side who are without Danny Ings is one of the best bets of the match.
The attacks of both the teams have struggled for goals recently. We expect this too to be a low scoring match and thus betting on the game to have less than 3.5 goals at odds of 1.66 (bet 365) is one of the safest bets of the match.
As said earlier we expect this to be a low scoring match with very less attacks. Southampton have an average of less than 5 corners per game and did not manage to win even a single corner in their last game against Leicester. Thus betting on the game to have less than 10 corners at odds of 2.00(bet 365) is a really good bet to make.
Quick Rich
Southampton have been in really poor form all season and have conceded 59 goals in total which is the third highest of all teams. We expect them to struggle against a desperate Liverpool side and thus betting on the scoreline to end at 2-0, 3-0 or 4-0 at odds of 3.20 (betway) can give really high returns at minimal risk.
Southampton defenders will find it tough to match the high speeds of the Liverpool wingers and wing backs and might struggle to stop Liverpool’s counters and might end up making some clumsy tackles. Betting on them to get more than 2.5 cards at odds of 4.33 (betway) can be a good bet to make.
Win/Lose/Draw
Liverpool will be looking to win every match from now on to cover the 7 point gap between them and 4th placed Chelsea. They will be confident of getting a win against a struggling Southampton side and start a winning run Thus, we expect the match to end as a Liverpool win at odds of 1.28. (betway)
Bet During the Match
If Southampton somehow manage o score against an inexperienced Liverpool defence and take the lead in the first half, Liverpool will go all out in the second half and thus betting on Liverpool to come from behind and win the match at current odds of 7.00 (betway) can be a really good bet to make during the match.
