Southampton vs Manchester City | Prediction, Betting Tips & Odds
Southampton host Premier League champions Manchester City on the final day of the season this weekend, with Mark Hughes’ side having all but secured their place in the top-flight for next season. A point would guarantee this for the Saints, however with Pep Guardiola’s side having only lost twice all season, it promises to be a difficult afternoon for the hosts.
Match Preview
Southampton host Manchester City on Sunday afternoon, with both sides looking to celebrate successful ends of the season with three points on the south coast. The Saints have all-but secured their survival in the Premier League, while City were handed the league trophy last weekend. The away side are the undoubted favourites for victory in the betting odds from bookmakers, however there are still plenty of attractive markets worth checking out before kick-off. For those still unsure of who to back, be sure to check out our top betting tip below. However, let’s first take a closer look at the two teams, starting with Southampton.
Southampton
Southampton won away at Swansea in a crucial relegation battle in Wales in midweek, meaning that only a dramatic turnaround would relegate them to the Championship. Mark Hughes will be hoping to claim victory over his old club at St Mary’s this weekend, with the Saints having now gone the last four matches unbeaten in the top-flight. Midfielder Steven Davis is out of the match due to injury, however Hughes has a near full-strength playing squad to call upon.
Manchester City
City can reach the 100 points mark in the Premier League with a win this weekend, with Pep Guardiola likely to name a strong starting line-up as a result. Forward Sergio Aguero is out of the trip to the south coast, with Gabriel Jesus set to continue in attack as a result. City have scored a massive 105 goals so far this season, while goalkeeper Ederson is still fighting to earn the Golden Glove award.
Head to Head
The two teams have met 15 times in the past, with Manchester City having won nine of such encounters, as well as recording three draws in the process. Pep Guardiola’s side ran out 2-1 winners at the Etihad earlier this season, with Raheem Sterling scoring a 96th-minute winner. Southampton’s last win over City came at St Mary’s back in 2016.
