It’s top v bottom at St Mary’s Stadium on Sunday afternoon, as Liverpool travel to newly-promoted Southampton.

The Saints have won just once all season, while the Reds sit on 28 points having won nine of their 11 Premier League games.

Kick-off is at 14:00 GMT.

More than 3.5m Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers have captained Mohamed Salah in Gameweek 12, with the Egyptian looking to add to his seven double-digit hauls.

He starts for the visitors, as Arne Slot makes three changes to his starting XI.

Conor Bradley replaces the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back, while Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo come in for Alexis Mac Allister and Luis Diaz further forward.

In the continued absence of Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez once again leads the line.
