Southampton vs Crystal Palace: Team Analyses
The dismayed Saints have had a tough campaign. Currently, they are in the last position on the table, facing the threat of relegation. With 2 wins, 3 draws, and 24 losses, they have only accumulated 9 points so far, and things are still looking bleak for Southampton. Considering that they will only get to play eight more matches to fight their way out of the relegation zone, it’s going to be a tough one for the Saints.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace have struggled through a rocky season, but won 10, drew 9, and lost 9 matches. The last five fixtures were quite pleasant for the Eagles as they won them all, and now they sit on the 12th position on the table. They are yet to play the match against Newcastle of matchday 29, which has been rescheduled to April 16. Looking at the team form, they have an edge over Southampton as both teams will aim to take the three points up for grabs.
