Southampton v Swansea Preview
In regards to Ronald Koeman’s high flying side, Southampton have simply been the most impressive Premier League team going this season, for not only achieving a stable place in the top four, but also for being able to maintain it all the way into 2015. Whilst their bubble may seemingly come to burst at any given moment in such an unpredictable league, the St. Mary’s faithful will still be hoping that their successful run manages to include this weekend’s fixture against the Swans.
Aside from last Saturday’s disappointing cup defeat at the hands of Alan Pardew’s Crystal Palace, Ronald Koeman’s boys have beaten both Arsenal and Manchester United in recent weeks, as well as securing a well fought draw against the title leaders, Chelsea. The likes of Graziano Pelle, Dusan Tadic and the newly acquired Eljero Elia have all been on song so far this campaign, and there is no reason why their form cannot continue into this Sunday’s match.
Graziano Pelle is our first goalscorer betting tip for Southampton v Swansea given his threat in the air and dominance up front. The best odds are 7/2 with Ladbrokes.
Garry Monk’s Swansea were also on the end of a bitter FA Cup loss last time out, but unlike the Saints, their league form has not made up for their recent shortcomings in the cup. The Swans, whilst maintaining their solid presence in the Premier League, have been nothing short of unpredictable so far this season, so in that sense they have been somewhat indifferent for large periods of the 2014/15 campaign.
Now with Wilfried Bony no longer at the Liberty Stadium, the likes of Bafetimbi Gomis and Marvin Emnes will really have to step up if they are to emulate the successes of their former Ivorian strike partner. Monk’s side have failed to pick up a Premier League win in 2015 (only three games), so the Swansea strikers will really have to find their scoring boots sooner rather than later. Perhaps this weekend’s fixture with Southampton will prove the perfect opportunity for someone like Gomis to finally step up to the plate achieve a consistent level of performance at his new club however.
The odds for a Southampton win look short at 4/7 and so for our next Southampton v Swansea betting tip we are predicting a slip up from the Saints, take the draw/Swansea win double chance at 31/20 with Coral.
In terms of injuries, Shane Long is thought to be suffering from a minor rib problem, but could still remain fit enough to challenge for a starting spot against the Swans this weekend. Koeman has no other real injury doubts to be concerned with as his side emerged relatively undamaged from the notorious festive period in Premier League football.
Ashley Williams, Leon Britton and Wayne Routledge have all picked up small knocks so far this month, but other than that Garry Monk is in a similar boat to his Dutch counterpart in terms of injuries for this weekend’s upcoming match.
Whilst the Saints have looked nothing short of formidable so far this season, perhaps a minor upset could be on the cards for the St. Mary’s faithful, as the Swans are bound to pick up a win sooner rather than later.
