Southampton vs Crystal Palace Premier League Prediction Match Details
The Premier League action continues on Wednesday night as rock-bottom Southampton welcomes Crystal Palace to St Mary’s Stadium. Can the Eagles build on their impressive away winning streak?
Southampton Preview & Form
Southampton are imminently getting close to a return to Championship football next season, and even the Saints manager, Ivan Juric, recently admitted the Saints "will go down" following the home defeat to Wolves. The Saints are currently experiencing a miserable run of form, having won only one from their last 12 league matches while losing the other 11 games. Before the International break, Ivan Juric's side extended their losing streak in the league to five matches in a row as they were beaten 2-1 by Wolverhampton at St Mary’s Stadium.
Their defense has conceded two or more goals in each of their last five league matches. Currently, they remain rock bottom of the Premier League with nine points from 29 games, 17 points adrift of the safety zone with nine games to go.
Ivan Juric is yet to give the Saints' supporting fans a win at home in the league since his appointment, with the Saints having lost each of their last six home league matches, during which they conceded two or more goals in each of the games.
Crystal Palace Preview & Form
Crystal Palace will travel to St Mary's Stadium on the back of a fine form, with the Eagles having won each of their last three Premier League games with two or more goals scored in two of the games. On Saturday, the Eagles claimed a comfortable 3-0 victory over Fulham at the Craven Cottage Stadium to send them through to the FA Cup semifinals for the third time in nine years. Palace Flying Form has seen them claim five successive wins across all competitions, and they have only suffered just two defeats in 2025. Currently, the Eagles sit 12th in the Premier League standings with 39 points, five points behind the mid-table.
Oliver Glasner's men are currently enjoying fine form on the road, having won their last six successive matches without conceding a single goal. They have scored two goals or more in each of their last four away matches.
