Hello and welcome to Eurosport's coverage of the Premier League match between Liverpool and Southampton.

The easiest of games for Liverpool. Thanks for following along with us.

Salah turns in from the right and shoots at goal with his left foot but it skews very, very wide and near the corner flag.

Peraud is replaced by Walkers-Peters.

Milner has time to aim a half-volley at goal from 20 yards but does not trouble McCarthy.

Jota goes off to be replaced by Minamino. He gets a big ovation from Anfield.

Another great run from Robertson down the left and he picks out Oxlade-Chamberlain with a square ball on the D of the penalty area but his shot is easy for McCarthy to parry away.

Salah curls an effort that was drifting just inside the far post but Salisu heads away from danger.

Jota could not get a better opportunity to score a hat-trick as Robertson put a perfect low cross behind the Southampton defence for him but sliding in he skewed his effort wide.

As easy as it has been for Liverpool their forward stars have not been at their best. Another overhit ball from Mane here for Milner.

Milner comes on for Henderson.

Tella plays in Armstrong but his effort is blocked by Fabinho.

Thiago is replaced by Oxlade-Chamberlain.

He had to score! A fantastic ball from Tella finds Armstrong at the back post but his first shot is so bad it almost goes square and is lucky to see it bounce back off the prone Konate and the second is then saved at the near post by Alisson.

GOAL FOR LIVERPOOL! The corner is met on the half-volley by van Dijk eight yards out and though he does not make a great connnection it gets through the keeper for the Reds' fourth.

Salah plays in Henderson down the right flank but his ball across the six-yard box is cleared.

Jota was played through on goal but Livramento recovers to tackle him.

Liverpool get the second half underway...

Diallo and Redmond come on for Southampton, Bednarek and Adams go off.

A completely dominant performance from Liverpool. The second half could get ugly.

Liverpool should have scored a fourth on the break but Salah after racing 60 yards with the ball fails to pick out Jota on his own in the penalty box.
