Southampton, Recent FormSouthampton will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-1 winners in their home fixture against Coventry City. They came away from that fixture with 60% of the possession and clocked up 13 attempts on goal with 6 on target. By comparison, Coventry City managed 9 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 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 19 of their 20 home games this season.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
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.
Watford, Recent FormA 0-0 draw against Ipswich Town will be viewed as a positive outcome for Watford and a valuable point into the bargain. In that game they had 43% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Ipswich Town who had 15 attempts and 4 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Tom Cleverley 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 6 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 4 and kept a clean sheet in 3.
There will be mixed feelings from The Hornets, while they've been undefeated in their last 5 league games, they've only manage a drawn in 4 of them.
Mileta Rajović has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Southampton.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Southampton will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against The Hornets, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 8 meetings between the two.
With only Juan Larios (Hamstring) and Ross Stewart (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Russell Martin will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Tom Cleverley has a number of injury concerns in his Watford squad to contend with: Kwadwo Baah (Hamstring), Jeremy Ngakia (Knee) and Ken Sema (Hamstring)
