SOUTHAMPTON
Southampton last weekend’s draw at Elland Road against Leeds United ended a run of four consecutive defeats in all competitions for a team that had gone on a seven-match unbeaten run (5W, 2D) before that wobble.
The Saints are on course to better their point tally from last season (43) after garnering thirty-six points at this stage of the season with an available twenty-four points on offer before the league reaches its climax next month.
Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side are known for their pressing abilities and giving the big boys of the league a huge fight and this can be reflected in their result against some of them this season. They are unbeaten in six league matches against Manchester United, Manchester City, and Tottenham this season (1W, 5D).
Southampton have been led ably led by their Captain James Ward Prose, who got the equalizer against Leeds United with a well-taken free-kick. The 27-year-old’s speciality from set-pieces has been a major story of the league season and the one over the weekend made him the second man with the most direct freekick goal in the league history (13) behind David Beckham (18).
CHELSEA
Chelsea last weekend’s humiliating home loss to Brentford came as a surprise, but they could not respond in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final first leg against Real Madrid who ran out 3-1 winners on the night.
The loss at the weekend has no bearing on the league position yet, as they still maintain a five-point lead over the fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur.
The Blues have lost back-to-back home games for the first time this season after their loss to Real Madrid in the Champions League midweek game followed the loss to Brentford last weekend and the team needs to avoid defeat a loss in this tie because not since the 2015/2016 season have Chelsea lost three competitive games in a row.
One of Chelsea’s issues last season was their inability to convert the chances they created due to the profligacy of their attacking options and the arrival of Romelu Lukaku was meant to put an end to that but despite the good start to his second homecoming at the Bridge, things have gone sour for the Belgian due to the form of the likes of Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic, and others.

SOUTHAMPTON VS CHELSEA BETTING TIPS AND PREDICTIONS
Chelsea are condemned to get a positive result against the Saints after back-to-back losses both in the League and the Champions League. The Blues were particularly shambolic defensively in those two games and Tuchel will be scratching his Head on to tighten things at the back.
Despite their frailties at the back, they still possess a fearsome attack and we are backing them to get a couple of at least at the Saint Mary’s Stadium.
So, for our first tip, we forecast a double chance combo with a draw or Chelsea to win with Over 1.5 Goals which is priced at 1.63 on 1xbet. We have more Premier League betting tips at no extra cost to you.
For the next tip, there is still more value in the goals market and given the tendency of Chelsea to concede goals lately and the attacking abilities of Southampton, we will settle for Over 2.5 goals at 1.89 on Cloudbet.
