Both Crystal Palace and The Saints need points to escape their current position at the relegation-end of the Premier League table. The match takes place at Selhurst Park and could be labelled a serious six-pointer.

Placed 16th in the table Crystal Palace have amassed 17 points after 18 matches. On six points, The Saints rank 20th with 18 matches played this season.

Crystal Palace came away with three points from the latest encounter with Southampton. It would be a surprise if they fail do to it again, when they face each other this coming Sunday.

The Eagles are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady 13 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.3 per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 15 goals, or an average of 1.5 a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to three clean sheets in this run.

The Saints travel to their next Premier League match, averaging a lowly 0.5 goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a disappointing total of five goals, while also conceding 19 goals. That amounts to an average of 1.9 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Crystal Palace won the last two meetings against The Saints, as they followed up a 1-0 win by beating their upcoming opponent by a 2-0 score.

Crystal Palace vs Southampton Prediction

Crystal Palace Form

A single draw is all Crystal Palace have to show from their last three games, where they came up short, losing 3-2 and 1-5 against Arsenal and Arsenal respectively. Their latest match brought some consolation with a 0-0 against Bournemouth. Crystal Palace claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Premier League, which also saw them drawing two and losing three matches, in which they scored five and conceded 11 goals.

Southampton Form

In their past three games, Southampton lost 1-2 against Liverpool, drew 0-0 with Fulham, and lost 0-1 against West Ham. Southampton are winless in their last six away games in the Premier League, in which they drew two and lost four. They conceded eight goals while scoring two themselves.

Anything but a home win would be a stunning result, and we back Crystal Palace not to be stunned, just like we back numerous goals to be scored when they face Southampton.

Crystal Palace won five points from their last four encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won one, scored six and let in six goals. Southampton claimed one wins from four goals scored and six conceded from their past four matches against teams placed in the bottom six. This handed them four points to their account. Crystal Palace are looking at a record of three wins, eight draws and seven defeats in the Premier League this season. Southampton are looking at one win, three draws and 14 defeats in the Premier League.
