CHELSEA V SOUTHAMPTON PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS AND FACTS
Chelsea are 3rd in the EPL with 41 points from 21 matches. They have won 12, drawn 5 and lost 4 while scoring 43 goals and conceding 19. Their recent form has seen 4 wins and 1 defeat in their last 5 matches with an aggregate score of 15-2. 3 of the 5 game finished with over 2.5 goals.
Southampton are 15th in the table with 21 points from 21 games. They have won 5, drawn 6 and lost 10 while scoring 28 goals and conceding 38. Their recent form has seen 1 win, 3 draws and 1 defeat in their last 5 matches with an aggregate score of 6-6. Only one of the matches ended with over 2.5 goals.
TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY
This game was postponed from December due to Chelsea’s participating in the Club World Cup and it’ll allow the teams to catch up on the majority of the league who have already played 22 matches.
Chelsea are missing Romeu and Benayoun due to injury and have Mikel and Victor Moses at the AFCON. They still have plenty of options and in their 4-0 win over Stoke at the weekend they still had players such as Torres and Oscar on the bench.
Southampton are struggling more with injuries and have a number of first team players out. Luke Shaw the excellent young left back in injured along with Do Prado, Font end Lallana. Their squad is quite thin so it’ll be tough for the replacements to play at a similar level.
A Chelsea win will put pressure on Manchester City who will just be 4 points ahead of Chelsea in 2nd place. The title seems too far away for Chelsea this season but I wouldn’t rule out a strong second place finish.

Chelsea has seen an average of 3.4 goals per game over their last 5 matches while Southampton has seen 2.4 per game. It’s no surprise to see the over as a strong favourite but I still think there is some value to be had with it.
