The set-up: Liverpool is currently in first place in the Premier League standings. Liverpool though has failed to secure the full three points in each of its last two games, drawing 1-1 with West Bromwich two games ago and then drawing 0-0 with Newcastle.

The pick: Southampton is in ninth place, winning just once out of its last five games. Overall Southampton hasn't scored in its last three games. Southampton though is pretty tough defensively, conceding just 1.19 GPG. No need for Liverpool to dial up the pressure if it has a lead vs. this offensively challenged Southampton club. The home side will be playing a war of attrition today, waiting for the visiting side to make the first mistake. All in all, this one has "under" written all over it in my opinion.

This is a 10* TOTAL OF THE MONTH on the UNDER Liverpool/Southampton.
