THE LOWDOWN

SOUTHAMPTON

  • An excellent comeback from Southampton saw them gain a point away at Brighton last Sunday, with James Ward-Prowse starring once again with a brace, however the Saints have now won just one of their last eight in the Premier League.
  • A knee injury suffered against the Seagulls is expected to rule Tino Livramento out for the season, however goalkeeper Alex McCarthy stands a chance of recovering from a long-term thigh injury in time for this match.

CRYSTAL PALACE

  • Crystal Palace’s slump following their FA Cup semi-final defeat continued last Monday as they could only draw 0-0 with Leeds Utd with the Eagles having not scored in each of their last three in all competitions.
  • Full-back Tyrick Mitchell should come back into the starting line-up for this one, but Nathan Ferguson will once again miss out.

THE PREDICTION

Southampton will have taken real heart from their comeback against Brighton, but breaching this Crystal Palace defence won’t be easy when taking into account the Eagles’ performance against Leeds Utd. However, Palace themselves could struggle going forward in this one with Patrick Viera’s side having fired blanks in recent games. The outcome itself has the potential to go either way, but the smart play would be to back under 2.5 goals being scored within the 90 minutes.

Tip: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
