Liverpool host Southampton in a vital game for their hopes of finishing inside the Premier League top four.
The Saints have a good record against Jurgen Klopp's side and beat them in the semi-final of the EFL Cup back in January.
They haven't lost to the Reds since 2015 in the league and Carragher thinks their recent form against Liverpool is down to manager Claude Puel.
"You may have to look at the manager, even when he was in his Lyon days, I don't think he's lost to Liverpool yet Claude Puel," he said on Sky Sports.
"You look at the players, signings, maybe a bit of familiarity, the Southampton players know them so well.
"There's no doubt they've had the Indian sign over Liverpool this season, even going back to last season, I think Southampton won 3-2 after being 2-0 down under Ronald Koeman.
"It has been a bit of a bogey side for Jurgen Klopp since he came to Liverpool but it has to change today because it's an important game."
Philippe Coutinho starts for Liverpool after coming off injured against Watford last Monday.
