Southampton form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Southampton, who have the most conceded goals (28) away in Premier League, so far with only 13 points returning home. The records show 3-4-6 (win-draw-lose). A depressing five defeats in a row for Southampton in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Fulham.

Southampton have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 237 minutes ago. T. Minamino was the goal scorer.

There might be some fixture complaints from Southampton as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Premier League match against Everton (0-1). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Leeds United wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Premier League trip to Manchester City.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Southampton have scored 14 goals in 13 league games away. The Southampton manager R. Hasenhüttl has some worries about the defense as 28 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Southampton - Sheffield 3-0 played earlier this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Sheffield, one draw and five wins for Southampton. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
