I personally think that they'll do well against The Saints and there is a glimmer of hope for them to get to the top so I doubt that they are going to lose either way. Aside from that Southampton only won once over the last 10 EPL games so I guess it should be another 3 points for Liverpool unless they pretty much screw this one up

Now they'll need to depend on Tottenham to lose an already relegated Norwich

Good chances for Son to score few more goals to outlead Salah

Arsenal have probably just by themselves decided that they don't want to play in the Champions League yet ?

I mean losing to Tottenham seem quite understandable, but getting outplayed by Newcastle in a much needed win is something I don't understand. Now they'll need to depend on Tottenham to lose an already relegated Norwich while they'd need to win against a highly desperate Everton in the last game ? what are the chances ? I'd say none!

some things are just hard to get out of Arsenal. whenever it matters, they fall apart and lose the matches they would otherwise always win.
it happens to them every season, despite changing managers and bringing expensive players. in the finish, they entered with the best chances to be in the top 4, but they did themselves the biggest harm.

It might be a historic year, not just for Liverpool, but for any English club.

Well actually the fun thing about the next game of City vs Aston Villa is that, thats Gerrard's team right now. Imagine that somehow Gerrard win the next game against City which leads to Liverpool winning the EPL, that would have been historic for Liverpool. A living legend of Liverpool has the chance of helping his former club win the EPL, well it would be hard for Villa to actually win in an away game against City Roll Eyes

a lot of focus on Man City v Villa but no talk about Liverpool's must-win game tomorrow. No VVD, no fabinho and no Salah, plus the rest of the starting 11 are coming from a 120-minutes thriller just three days ago... Klopp's side have the momentum on their side, but the Saints are no strangers to upsets at St. Mary's, Arsenal andr Man City know a thing or two about it this season 🤔

thoughts?

True all that but Saints are out of form and playing for nothing. I believe that no matter what line up Liverpool uses they will have more then enough quality to win that game.

Arsenal starting in 15 minutes against very good Newcastle side. This is must win for them since Spurs are piling up the pressure. Should be a good game with couple of goals in it. My bet is on both to score @1.8.

We might be making the mistake of overlooking it. However, our team should be able to beat them without those players. The biggest loss for this game being Fabinho to stop the counter attacks. VVD probably isn't needed, and having Matip, and Konate is pretty damn good back up cover. Meanwhile, Salah hasn't been at his best, and quite frankly I believe we may have been playing better without him on the pitch recently, which is a little crazy to say. Maybe, not better, but at times he has tried to do too much, which just ends up causing frustration.

I'm probably as confident as I can get against Southampton. Although, I'm worried about Romeu potentially injuring our players. I just want a clean bill of health going into that Champions League final. Salah, and VVD should be back, as they were small knocks according to what I was reading earlier.

I think that Premier league is the only league in the world, where there is no playing for nothing
look at last round, Brighton and Brentford do not have much to play for, and they gave hard time to both Leeds and Everton, which would be much different in all other leagues, do not want to mention Calcio or La Liga, but even there

nevertheless, Saints are down, and I do not expect much from them, but they will not surrender before the start

That is also true, Premier League clubs always fight to the last minute no matter the stakes but I don't think it will matter that much since there is a big qoulity gap between these two clubs and Saints aren't a team that can defend whole game and get to the points that way.

Calcio still gets odds @2 for draws in last game week when draw is good enough for both sides. There are never odds like that for draws in PL.

Everton look to be surviving despite the result yesterday. Leeds have got Brentford next which is a must win, not sure they will though. Even then, Everton have two games to get something from. Burnley have probably the hardest fixtures left, so unless something crazy went on, I'd see Everton surviving. They did kick into gear the last few games though, so they probably do deserve it, I'll give them that.

not sure, but I think that Palace is a key match for Everton, looking at last match with Arsenal, I do not see a chance there
nevertheless, win over Palace has to come

Leeds beating Brentford will be surprise few rounds ago, but in the last round, I expect a win from Leeds
Burnley can take points against Villa, and last round should be a win over Newcastle, I can see them staying in the league prior to Leeds
