Southampton‌ ‌News‌ ‌and‌ ‌Form

The Saints have lost their last two games, reverses against Bournemouth and Tottenham. Southampton did at least get on the scoresheet in both of those defeats, part of a six-match scoring streak of form that they have produced in the league. The Saints are D1 L2 on home soil in the top flight this season, their draw coming against Manchester United.

The Saints are, therefore, yet to earn a clean sheet at home in this campaign. Stretching back to last season, Southampton have failed to take a win in any of their last five home Premier League games. The Saints have scored all but one of their league goals in the second half of contests this season. They have conceded the opening goal in five of their seven fixtures.

Southampton‌ ‌v‌ ‌Chelsea‌ ‌Head‌ ‌to‌ ‌Head

Chelsea took four points against Southampton last season
The Blues have won their last four league visits to Southampton
Southampton are winless in 13 against Chelsea in all competitions
The Saints have failed to score in four of their last six EPL games with the Blues

Chelsea‌ ‌News‌ ‌and‌ ‌Form

‌The Blues collected a comfortable 2-0 home win over Brighton last weekend, which was their first clean sheet and first home win of the campaign. Chelsea have won their last two out on the road, scoring wins over Norwich and Wolves, tallying eight goals in the process in those two games. Chelsea haven’t had many problems creating and scoring goals this season and four of their last five have gone over 2.5 goals, with the Blues scoring at least two goals in four of their last five as well.

They have, however, conceded exactly two goals in each of their last two away from Stamford Bridge. Chelsea are on a four-match winning streak against Southampton in all competitions and have conceded in just two of their last seven against them. Another big trend for this one is that the Blues have scored at least two goals in each of their last four visits to St Mary’s. They are almost at full strength for this one. Each of their last three goals in the league have been in the second half of fixtures.

Who‌ ‌will‌ ‌win‌ ‌-‌ ‌Southampton‌ ‌v‌ ‌Chelsea‌ ‌Predictions

The Blues should have the attacking quality to go and get three points on the road here. They have delivered well so far on their travels and with Southampton just hitting some disappointing and frustrating results, the home side could be there for the taking. Chelsea to win.
