Southampton will take on Newcastle. The match will take place at St. Mary’s Stadium in Southampton on Sunday, 6 November.
Saint Paul still has the season but cannot give it to them. The last championship’s “Saints” received a new owner. It’s not surprising that Dragan Solak is compared to Roman Abramovich in Serbia. The oligarch seems to have started in English football judiciously: in winter, he invited Ankresen, a cool Scout. He was generous with his money, and he didn’t hesitate to help newcomers. However, he also did not spend much on stars already made. In fact, he created the Soton traditions. Ralf hasenhuttl’s men are currently playing in the 13 Premier League games. They have just 3 wins and 12 points. Recent results were positive, with draws against Arsenal, West Ham, and Arsenal as well as an away win over Bournemouth. Crystal Palace lost in the final round.
Newcastle is slowly living up to its highest expectations. One year ago, the Magpies seemed like an outsider in Premier League. Their statistics at the end of fall were so bad that there was little hope of survival. The new Saudi Arabian owners and Eddie Howe’s coaching skills did the job and they managed to climb up the rankings in the spring. Many players were bought in the summer and quite a few newcomers were very expensive. The team suffered enough losses at the beginning – even though it lost only 1 to Liverpool. However, 5 of 7 rounds ended in draws. It was a significant improvement in October. Only Manchester United drew that month. All five remaining fights, including one with Tottenham, were won. It was possible to make it into the Champions League quartet by November. But will it be possible for you to establish a foothold?
Southampton only managed one victory in the 10 previous head-to-head matches. Newcastle won this segment 6 times, including 7 out of 9 points in the 3 previous meetings. Southampton is not in danger, but Newcastle is still “on fire”. We recommend betting on Newcastle’s victory on Sunday.
Prediction: Newcastle to Win
