Southampton vs Bournemouth Prediction

Southampton Form

Showing inconsistent form, Southampton lost two of their past three matches, going down 1-3 against Newcastle, before beating Ipswich 1-2. The joy was short-lived, as Burnley proved too strong in a 0-1 defeat. Southampton did not win any of their last six Premier League matches at the St. Mary's Stadium. They came through these matches with a record of zero draws and five defeats, in which they conceded 12 and scored five goals.

Bournemouth Form

Two victories are what Bournemouth have to show from their past three matches, as they first beat Nottingham Forest 5-0. This was followed by a 0-2 defeat against Liverpool, before winning again 0-2 against Everton. Bournemouth recorded a very decent outcome of four wins from six away matches in the Premier League, in which they banged in 17 goals, whilst conceding eight. They remained undefeated, but did draw twice.

Southampton don't look like a team currently possessing a form that is capable of shutting out Bournemouth, and the away win is our the bet on Saturday.

Bournemouth won five of their previous seven outings against teams from the bottom six and claimed 16 points. They scored 14 and conceded eight goals. Southampton have a record of two wins, three draws and 19 defeats in the Premier League this season. Bournemouth are looking at 11 wins, seven draws and six defeats in the Premier League.
