Southampton v Crystal Palace prediction
Crystal Palace make the trip to the south coast to take on the Premier League’s bottom club in buoyant mood after booking their place in the FA Cup semi finals on Saturday with a dominant 3-0 in a London derby away at Fulham.
The victory means Oliver Glasner’s side have won five matches in a row, and 10 of their last 12 in a huge revival after a slow start to the campaign.
The recent run of wins has seen the Eagles climb up to 12th place in the Premier League and still in with an outside chance of qualifying for Europe next season via the league, with the club only six points off eighth, which is expected to be enough for a Conference League spot.
Only three teams are averaging more points per game away from home in the Premier League than the south London club this season, with the Eagles having won their last six games away from home, and haven’t conceded on the road in any competition since before Christmas.
Southampton head into the midweek round of top flight action rock bottom of the table with just nine points to their name from 29 games played, still in with a chance of holding the unwanted record for fewest points in a Premier League season in history.
Ivan Juric’s side have lost each of their last six matches in preparation for their visit of Crystal Palace, as well as 11 defeats in their last 12 in the Premier League, leaving them eight points adrift at the bottom of the table and 17 points from safety.
The Saints have by far the worst home record in the league this season with 12 defeats from their 14 league games so far, last picking up a point in front of their home fans back in the opening days of November.
Crystal Palace have won four of their last five matches against Southampton, who have won just one of their last six against the Eagles.
Two sides at the opposite end of the form table come to blows on the Hampshire coast on Wednesday, and I expect both runs to continue with Palace comfortable victors – I’m going for a 3-0 away win.

Southampton v Crystal Palace bet builder
Crystal Palace to win to nil, Jean-Philippe Mateta to score a brace and Southampton to receive more booking points – 23/1 with Sky Bet
Crystal Palace have won their last six matches away from home in all competitions and haven’t so much as conceded a goal on their travels since before Christmas, a run spanning seven games, while Southampton have lost 12 of their 14 home league games.
Jean-Philippe Mateta leads the Eagles’ scoring charts this season with 15 goals in all competitions following his first start back from injury on the weekend, and has eight goals in his last eight Premier League appearances.
Southampton not only sit rooted to the bottom of the table but also have the worst disciplinary record in the Premier League this season, and are expected to be in for a tough day at the office against a rampant Eagles side.
