Southampton vs Stoke City Preview
Southampton are fresh off the back of a last gasp 1-1 draw against Burnley with a goal that was full of controversy. That goal from Manolo Gabbiadini earned the Saints a point, which could be absolutely crucial come the end of the season. They have been in decent form recently with only 2 defeats in their last 10.
In terms of the team news, goalscorer Charlie Austin is a long term injury absentee. There are quite a few players that are doubts for this game though, including Steven Davis, Shane Long and Maya Yoshida but they should all be fine to play this crucial game.
Stoke City fought hard to get their own 1-1 draw away from home against Leicester City on Saturday. Xherdan Shaqiri scored a brilliant individual goal and looks somewhat back to his best. A horrible mistake from Jack Butland did cost his side a crucial 2 points, but he has made plenty of saves this season.
Stephen Ireland and Peter Crouch are injured for Paul Lambert’s side. Young striker Tyrese Cambell came on for his debut against Leicester last Saturday but is not likely to get a start here. He will be probably looking to make an impact from the bench again.

Southampton vs Stoke City Prediction
Both sides are in trouble at the bottom of the Premier League and are in danger of playing Championship football next season. This is a game that many would describe as a “six pointer” and whoever wins will give themselves a great chance of staying up.
Southampton are currently outside of the relegation zone in 16th, with 27 points from 28 matches. Stoke however are in a worse position, down in 19th place with 26 points. This is likely to be a really nervous game, with both sides scared to lose.
Since Paul Lambert replaced Mark Hughes, Stoke have improved their performances. It has not been amazing, but they have been steady, mostly picking up points with draws rather than wins.
A win is needed for both sides, but the tip is actually for a draw. We expect that it will be pretty low scoring too, with a 1-1 Correct Score offering good value as both sides have had plenty of those scorelines recently.
