Liverpool have won each of their last four FA Cup meetings with Southampton, most recently a 3-0 fifth round victory at Anfield in 1989-90.
Southampton have lost their last six away games against Liverpool in all competitions, and are winless in seven (D1) since a 1-0 victory in the 2016-17 EFL Cup semi-final.
Liverpool have alternated between progression (5) and elimination (4) in their last nine FA Cup fifth round ties. They beat Norwich 2-1 in their last such match in 2021-22, the only time they’ve reached the quarter-final of the competition under Jürgen Klopp.
Southampton have progressed from three of their last four FA Cup fifth round ties, including twice in the previous three seasons. However, they did lose against Grimsby Town at this stage of the competition last term.
Liverpool’s Diogo Jota has been directly involved in nine goals in 11 appearances in the FA Cup (5 goals, 4 assists), only failing to register a goal involvement in one of his seven starts in the competition (v Norwich in March 2022).
Southampton’s Ché Adams has been directly involved in four goals in his last three FA Cup appearances (2 goals, 2 assists), twice as many as he was in his first 18 games in the competition (1 goal, 1 assist).
