Crystal Palace vs Southampton Prediction

Crystal Palace Form

In their previous three games, Crystal Palace lost 3-0 against Fulham, beat Bournemouth 0-2, before losing 4-0 against Tottenham. Crystal Palace have been in potent form at Selhurst Park, winning no less than five of the past six FA Cup matches here. They also hammered in 11 goals, while letting in two as they also lost once.

Southampton Form

Southampton were unable to pick up a single point in their last three matches, as they were first beaten 1-3 by Brighton. Next up, Fulham won 2-1, before losing 0-1 against Nottingham Forest. Southampton managed a decent return of three wins in their last six FA Cup away matches, in which they scored 12 while also conceding eight times. They also experienced one draw and two defeats.

It seems both Southampton and Crystal Palace have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues this coming Saturday, and we are rooting for goals.
