Burnley

Key Stats
Southampton vs Burnley Predictions
We think that Southampton will continue with their results crisis and with the low morale they have had for months and Burnley can hurt them, as they are a team that against rivals of the same level usually do great performances, especially defending well and taking advantage of the few chances they have to score.
As far as goals are concerned, both teams have conceded at least one goal in the last few matches, so this situation can be expected again. We think this match will end with over 2.5 total match goals
