Southampton Chelsea betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Given what we discussed earlier, the possibility of a match with goals is great. Even playing away from home, Chelsea should hold the game and dominate possession by attacking in a more organized manner. On the other hand, we expect a very dangerous Southampton counterattack, taking advantage of the space in the defensive line offered by the opponent. It should be noted that the clubs record a great averages of goals conceded under these conditions. Having said that and considering all the factors, we believe that betting in favor of goals is the most suitable for this game.

Preview
Southampton and Chelsea meet at St. Mary's Stadium, in a match for the 8th round of the Premier League. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the away team, since they have a record of 4 wins and 1 draw in the last 5 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 07‑10‑2018, in a match for the Premier League, Chelsea won by (0‑3). The goals of the match were scored by E. Hazard (30' ), R. Barkley (57' ) and Álvaro Morata (90' ) for Chelsea. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Southampton

After 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, the home team is in the 14th position, havinf won 7 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against Tottenham Hotspur by (2‑1), after in the previous match they have lost (1‑3) at home, against AFC Bournemouth. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home matches Southampton has won 4, tied 3 and lost 3. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 5 of the last 7 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 6 of the last 7 matches for this competition. In 9 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Southampton kicks off for this game unmotivated after their 2-1 loss to Tottenham, adding to their second Premier League defeat: Danny Ings scored the only goal of the team. In this match against Chelsea, mister Ralph Hasenhüttl should keep the team in their usual tactical design, ie 3-5-2, where Nathan Redmond and Danny Ings are the most advanced men of the team. On the other hand, Sofiane Boufal is the highlight of this formation with 2 assists for goal. Out of this game are Cédric Soares, McCarthy and Djenepo, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Angus Gunn, Ryan Bertrand, Jan Bednarek, Maya Yoshida, Yan Valery, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Nathan Redmond, James Ward-Prowse, Oriol Romeu, Shane Long, Danny Ings.
Coach: R. Hasenhüttl.

Analysis Chelsea

The away team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 11 points won, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Liverpool, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Brighton & Hove Albion, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss in away matches, with 34 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 36 goals scored and 15 conceded. In their last match, for the UEFA Champions League, they got an away win against Lille by (1‑2). In the last 10 away matches Chelsea has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 7 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 6 of the last 7 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Chelsea heads into this match very motivated after their 1-2 win against Lille in the Europa League group stage. It should be noted that Londoners beat Brighton on the last matchday of the Premier League. Even on foreign lands, mister Frank Lampard must act with a cautious strategy, seeking counterattack to exploit the enemy's back. At the individual level we highlight the young prodigy Tammy Abraham, player who has scored 7 goals so far. For this game the visiting mister cannot count on Emerson, Rudiger and Loftus-Cheek, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Kepa Arrizabalaga, Marcos Alonso, César Azpilicueta, Fikayo Tomori, Kurt Zouma, Jorginho, N'Golo Kanté, Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham, Willian, Callum Hudson-Odoi.
Coach: B. Saltor Grau.
