Graeme Souness predicts where Liverpool will finish

Graeme Souness is confident that Liverpool have done enough to finish in the top four this season.

The Reds took another small step towards securing Champions League football at Anfield next term by beating Merseyside rivals Everton 3-1 on Saturday afternoon.

That win lifted Jurgen Klopp’s men up into third place in the table as the German looks to steer the Reds into Europe’s elite club competition in his first full season in charge at Anfield.

Liverpool are now preparing for their home game against Bournemouth at Anfield on Wednesday night as they look to keep their top-four bid on track.

And former Liverpool star Souness feels that the Reds are on course to finish in the top four and secure a Champions League spot for next season.

Speaking on Sky Sports News HQ on Monday morning, Souness said: “For Liverpool, it’s very much for them to lose now in terms of finishing in the top four. I think they’re in a great situation.”
