How To Watch Tonight’s Liverpool vs Southampton Carabao Cup Match FREE: Confirmed TV and Streaming Details | OneFootball

Liverpool host Southampton in Carabao Cup third round

Liverpool return to Anfield tonight with the Carabao Cup offering another opportunity to build on their flawless start to the season. Six wins from six in the Premier League has provided momentum, and now attention shifts to the domestic cup where Liverpool are seeking to reach the final again after falling short last season.

Slot rotation against Southampton

Arne Slot has made it clear that key figures will be given a rest. “Several of his key players – including Mohammed Salah and Virgil van Dijk – will be handed a midweek rest,” was the confirmation after the derby victory over Everton.

That decision opens the door for others to step forward. Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike could all feature, as well as a clutch of younger players eager to impress on the Anfield stage.

Southampton arrive in poor form. Will Still’s side sit 19th in the Championship after one win in their first six league games, with Saturday’s 3-1 defeat at Hull underlining the challenges they face. Yet the Carabao Cup is often a leveller, and Saints may view this tie as a chance to spark their season into life.

History shaping expectations

Liverpool’s dominance in this fixture is undeniable. The Reds have lost just once against Southampton in all competitions since 2017, a record that emphasises the gulf between the clubs. With ten League Cup wins already to their name, Liverpool are chasing an 11th, while Southampton have often found Anfield a punishing venue.

Still, cup football can surprise. A rotated Liverpool lineup will offer hope to the travelling support, even if Anfield’s atmosphere and the hosts’ depth make it a daunting assignment.
