Southampton, Recent FormSouthampton manager Russell Martin will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Blackburn Rovers. Their share of possession in that meeting was 69%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Blackburn Rovers, who had 11 shots on goal with 3 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 11 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games; however, they have scored in 18 of their 19 home games this season.
