Liverpool Vs Southampton Live Streaming, EFL Cup 2025-26: Match Preview
Southampton, managed by Will Still, have not achieved much in the past few years, their best EFL Cup run being 2016-17 when they lost 3-2 to Manchester United in the final. In spite of that, the Saints have demonstrated tenacity in past third-round matches, at times beating more powerful sides.
Liverpool have begun the Premier League campaign well, with five victories from five matches, at the top of the standings. Southampton, who were demoted last season, are not doing well in the Championship and are currently 19th on six points from six matches.
Liverpool Vs Southampton Live Streaming, EFL Cup 2025-26: Head-To-Head Record
The head-to-head record is overwhelmingly in favour of Liverpool, who lead Southampton 65-31 with 26 draws. In their previous ten meetings, Liverpool have claimed victory nine times, with their sole defeat coming in a 0-1 Premier League game on January 4, 2021.
Liverpool last season sealed a league double over Southampton, winning 3-2 on the road and 3-1 at Anfield. The Reds also thrashed Southampton 2-1 in the League Cup quarter-final, showing that they have dominated matches against them recently.
These figures indicate Liverpool come into this game as outright favourites, but cup ties tend to have surprises, particularly with rotation and squad rotation.
