Wolves vs Southampton Premier League Prediction Match Details
Two relegation-battling teams, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Southampton, will face off at the Molineux Stadium in Premier League Gameweek 11 on Saturday. Will the Wanderers end their winless drought?
West Ham Preview & Form
Wolverhampton have made a dreadful start to the Premier League season, as they are one of the two teams still searching for a first league win of the season. Wolves have now gone ten consecutive games without a win in the league, leaving relegation pressure to mount on head coach Gary O’Neil. However, the team is showing some signs of improvement as they are currently on a two-match unbeaten run, recording a draw in both games. Wolves secured a crucial 2-2 draw against Crystal Palace the last time out in the league. Gary O’Neil’s side lies at the bottom of the league table with three points. Wolves have the worst defense in the Premier League this season, having conceded 27 goals.
Under pressure, Gary O’Neil hopes his side can end their poor home form, as their only win of the season came at home against Burnley in the Carabao Cup third round. Wolves’ home form has been disappointing this season, with their only defeats coming against the top six clubs in the Premier League. They lost to Chelsea, Newcastle, Liverpool, and Manchester City, but managed to earn a point in their match against Crystal Palace.
Southampton Preview & Form
Southampton will come into this clash with huge confidence, having secured two consecutive wins for the first time since arriving in the top flight this season. The Saints clinched a 3-2 win over Stoke in the Carabao Cup fourth round and then followed it up to record their first Premier League win and first clean sheet of the season last weekend against Everton, with Adam Armstrong striking in the 85th minute. Russell Martin’s men now lie 19th in the league table with four points but will boost their confidence with their recent winning streak as they look to move away from the relegation zone.
However, they have faced a tough challenge on the road, having lost all five away league games since their return to the top division. Russell Martin’s men have suffered defeats to Newcastle United, Brentford, Bournemouth, Arsenal, and Manchester City. They conceded 11 goals during the process.
