THE LOWDOWN

SOUTHAMPTON

  • Bottom-of-the-table Southampton have improved since the appointment of Ruben Selles but their 2-0 loss at home to Brentford leaves The Saints in dire straits.
  • The Saints squad is in rude health overall as Tino Livramento and Juan Larios are the only injury absentees that Ruben Selles has to contend with.

TOTTENHAM

  • Tottenham Hotspur earned a comfortable 3-1 victory over Nottingham Forest in their most recent outing last weekend. They can strengthen their grip on a top four spot with a victory at St Mary’s.
  • Emerson Royal is back in contention after recovering from injury but Antonio Conte may be tempted to keep faith with the starting XI that saw off Nottingham Forest last Saturday.

THE PREDICTION

Southampton’s most recent outing will frustrate their supporters and give them cause for viewing relegation as a certainty. However, they have shown impressive signs against sides in the so-called ‘big six’ and now face a fragile Tottenham team. Spurs have little to play for this season other than qualification for the UEFA Champions League but, as shown by their meek Round of 16 exit against AC Milan, that might not really matter to their supporters anyway. Under 2.5 goals seems likely for this one, regardless of the end match result.

TIP: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
