What kind of reception will the former Saints get?
Attacking midfielder Adam Lallana looks certain to miss out through injury, but Southampton are set to come up against two former players at Anfield, Dejan Lovren and Rickie Lambert, so how will they react? Lambert is likely to receive a heroes reception after the fine service that he gave to the Saints, but things could be slightly more frosty for Lovren from the away fans, with the Croatian’s move to Anfield having been a protracted and bitter affair.
