Stoke City, Recent FormStoke City will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 3-2 win in their away outing against Bristol City. Their share of possession in that meeting was 47%, while racking up 6 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Bristol City, who had 13 shots on goal with 5 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Alex Neil will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 6 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 11 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 3 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
They're experiencing a very poor spell of form at Bet365 Stadium, having lost 4 of their last 6 home games.
Southampton, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-1 home win over Leeds United in their last league game, Southampton will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with a 47% share of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to Leeds United, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
Manager Russell Martin will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 14 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 7 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 21 games overall.
They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.
Goalscorer Adam Armstrong will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Southampton.
