Must-win at Saints to avoid the hell – no Salah nor VVD in Liverpool’s penultimate EPL game

Four points behind with a game in hand (tonight’s at Southampton) and one more left (at home against the Wolves) – from this perspective, it seems Liverpool are just one step too far away from reaching a mercurial success this season by winning all three domestic trophies.We’ve got the head in the right place!The most worth one – the English Premier League trophy – is about to stay at the Etihad, but as the old saying goes, “the game’s not over till the fat lady sings”. And Jurgen Klopp’s boys are obliged not to let her sing after tonight’s clash with the Saints on their soil.TUE: 21.45: (8.00) SOUTHAMPTON (5.30) LIVERPOOL (1.43)An eventual Scousers’ win would mean the exciting title race will reach its climax in the ultimate round, as City will host Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa, eager to save the season by defending the ELP title.🚨 NEW: Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk are set to miss Liverpool’s Premier League trip to Southampton on Tuesday as Jürgen Klopp looks to protect their fitness before the Champions League final. #awlive [paul joyce – times] pic.twitter.com/HuYmsgtEIq— Anfield Watch (@AnfieldWatch) May 16, 2022 However, they still depend a bit on Liverpool’s achievements and would watch the Saints’ tie with the hope of a surprising draw. The title contenders, on the other hand, will make sure to score an opener as early as it gets to wrap things up before the half-time break and prolong the drama regarding the new champion. They’ll have to do it without two out of three of their biggest stars – Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk – who are sidelined due to minor injuries.##EDITORS_CHOICE##The pair went off during Saturday’s FA Cup final win over Chelsea at Wembley – Salah with a groin problem, Van Dijk with a knee injury. Red’s boss Klopp is confident both will return for Sunday’s season finale against Wolves at Anfield.”The target is they could be involved again at the weekend,” said Klopp.”It’s very positive. We’re realistic about the Wolves game, but for the Saints, [we’d] rather not.”PREMIER LEAGUE – Round 37SundayTottenham – Burnley 1-0 (1-0)/Kane 45+8 pen/Aston Villa – Crystal Palace 1-1 (0-0)/Watkins 69 – Schlupp 81/Leeds – Brighton 1-1 (0-1)/Struijk 90+2 – Welbeck 21/Watford – Leicester 1-5 (1-2)/Pedro 6 – Maddison 18, Vardy 22, 70, Barnes 46, 86/Wolverhampton – Norwich 1-1 (0-1)/Nouri 55- Pukki 37/West Ham – Man.City 2-2 (2-0)/Bowen 24, 45 – Grealish 49, Coufal (og) 69/Everton – Brentford 2-3 (2-1)/Calvert-Lewin 10, Richailson (p) 45 – Coleman (og) 37, Wissa 62, Henry 64/MondayNewcastle – Arsenal 2-0 (0-0)/White 55 og, Guimaraes 85/Tuesday21.45: (8.00) Southampton (5.10) Liverpool (1.42)***odds are subject to change
