Liverpool are back in Premier League action this Saturday as they welcome Southampton to Anfield.
The Reds remain in control of the title race, and with a 16-point lead in sight, this match presents a great chance to maintain dominance.
However, the bigger picture is also on Arne Slot’s mind.
After a grueling Champions League clash against PSG, rotation is expected.
The team worked hard midweek, and key players need a breather ahead of next week’s second leg.
A crucial Carabao Cup final is also on the horizon.
Slot must balance the squad wisely.
The good news? Southampton are bottom of the league.
Liverpool should have enough quality, even with changes.
Despite the rotation, some stars will keep their places.
CONFIRMED: Liverpool XI v Southampton
Now, let’s look at the confirmed lineup.

The goal is clear – secure the three points while keeping legs fresh for bigger challenges ahead.
