Reds looking to pick up where they left off as Premier League returns

Liverpool have enjoyed a fin start to the season under Slot and will be confident of sweeping aside a Southampton side bottom of the table and four points adrift.
Southampton vs Liverpool is scheduled for a 2pm GMT kick-off time on Sunday 24 November, 2024.
St Mary’s Stadium in Southampton will host.

The hosts are set to be without goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale and defender Jan Bednarek after both sustained injuries during the international break.
The pair had played every minute in the Premier League this season but Ramsdale left England's camp before their Nations League fixtures and has had surgery on a finger injury.
Bednarek was forced off with a knee issue at half-time of Poland's defeat to Portugal last Friday.
Virgil van Dijk is available for Liverpool but Trent Alexander-Arnold is out. Liverpool remain without goalkeeper Alisson Becker despite his recent return to training.
Harvey Elliott is back in training but Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota are still a way off returning.
