After an awful first half of the campaign, Liverpool made a very late push for Champions League football.
What looked extremely unlikely came very close to happening when Manchester United began dropping points often.
However, Liverpool drew 1-1 with Aston Villa in the Premier League last weekend. This handed Newcastle and Manchester United the final two spots in the top-four, with Liverpool four points off 4th heading into the final day.
The Reds have Europa League football wrapped up for next season instead, whilst their opponents on Sunday have already been relegated to the Championship.

Liverpool team news vs Southampton
Thiago, Naby Keita, Calvin Ramsay and Stefan Bajcetic have all been ruled out of Sunday’s game.
Andy Robertson and Ibrahima Konate picked up issues recently but should be fit to return vs the Saints.
