THE PREDICTION
Premier League action returns to St Mary’s for the first time since Southampton’s famous 1-0 win over defending champions Liverpool just over three weeks ago. This time the Saints welcome Arsenal, only three days after the two collided in the FA Cup fourth round on the same ground. The Gunners are enjoying a rich vein of form in the Premier League, having won four of their last five league games without defeat. Therefore, a close contest is expected here with goals likely to be at a premium with both teams strong defensively. With that in mind, consider under 2.5 goals score in this one.
