Southampton Preview – Can Saints end dismal run?
Southampton will head into this Saturday’s home clash with Chelsea on the back of a four-match sequence without a win in the Premier League, losing three of these four games having suffered defeats at the hands of Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Watford while a point in a 1-1 draw at Leeds United barely made a dent in the points lost of late.
Saints had previously produced some encouraging results as the south coast side had lost just one of their preceding 10 games but with now 15 points separating them from 6th placed West Ham, Southampton’s season is now in danger of fizzling out in disappointing fashion.
The hosts have also lost their last two home games on the trot.
Chelsea Preview – Can Blues bounce back?
Chelsea’s impressive five-match winning streak was brought to an abrupt halt upon their return to Premier League action following the international break in emphatic fashion as they were dealt a heavy and humiliating 4-1 defeat at home to Brentford last Saturday.
Previously, Chelsea had chalked up wins against Tottenham, Crystal Palace, Burnley, Norwich City and Newcastle United but The Blues have given up far too much ground on the top two clubs so the visitors will have to make do with a top four finish.
The visitors have lost just two of their last 15 away games.
