The match of the 24th round of the APL between Chelsea and Southampton will take place on February 18 at Stamford Bridge Stadium in London.
CHELSEA
The London club were held to a 1-1 draw with West Ham on the road last matchday. It was their third successive draw in the league, before defeating Crystal Palace. The team had no such unbeaten streak in the EPL since last October. Chelsea are still sitting in the middle of the table, 10 points adrift of the top-four.
SOUTHAMPTON
The team remains in last place in the standings, four points behind the saving 17th position. In the last round, Southampton lost again – at home to Wolverhampton 1-2. It was the third straight defeat in the league. Also, in the previous 10 games in the EPL, the team lost nine times, defeating only Everton. On the road Southampton has 13 games without a draw in the championship and in this series of matches the team won 3 times, losing in 10 games.
PREDICTION
After another defeat, Southampton’s management had no patience and Nathan Jones was sent to resign immediately. This is the second change of head coach during the season. Judging by the game, it will be very difficult to keep the team from relegation to the Championship. “Chelsea also does not particularly please their fans, while at the same time the Londoners have stopped losing and little by little the newcomers to the club begin to play up.
Graham Potter’s side need to win, and with a convincing result, to give the players confidence to keep their chances of getting at least into the Europa League. Southampton is a suitable opponent for this, so I assume that the owners will win with a difference of 2 goals or more.
