Southampton's focus is on coming back on track of the Premier League victories, and in this game you have all the conditions to advance in the competition.

Preview
Southampton and West Ham United face at St. Mary's Stadium, in a match for the 17th round of the Premier League. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history indicates total balance between these two teams, since there is a record of 1 draw and 2 wins for each team in the last 5 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium was on 27‑12‑2018, in a match for the Premier League, West Ham United won by (1‑2). The goals of the match were scored by N. Redmond (50' ), for Southampton, and by Felipe Anderson (53' and 59' ), for West Ham United. Although this is a match between 18th and 16th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 19th best in home matches and the 10th best in away matches.

Analysis Southampton

The home team is currently in the 18th position of the league, with 15 points won, after 4 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Norwich City, by (2‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Newcastle United, by (2‑1). Interestingly enough, this is a team that has had better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 8 points in away matches and only 7 at their stadium. For the league, Southampton won 7 points out of 24 possible points, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses in the last 8 home matches. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 0‑1 (4 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 7 of the last 8 for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 16 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Southampton comes for this match after a 2-1 loss against Newcastle, putting an end to their two straight wins in this English first division: the only goal of the team was signed by Danny Ings. Unsurprisingly, Commander Raph Hasenhuttl should operate in the usual tactical system, namely 4-4-2, favoring the maintenance of ball possession and organized attacks. Danny Ings is the big star of this lineup with 9 goals scored. One of the weaknesses of this Southampton is still the defensive sector as they conceded an average of 2.88 goals per game at their stadium. For this match the coach cannot count on the injured Armstrong.

Confirmed Lineup: Alex McCarthy, Jan Bednarek, Ryan Bertrand, Cédric Soares, Jack Stephens, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Nathan Redmond, Moussa Djenepo, James Ward-Prowse, Shane Long, Danny Ings.
Coach: R. Hasenhüttl.

Analysis West Ham

The away team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 16 points won, after 4 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Wolverhampton Wanderers, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Arsenal, by (1‑3). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 9 points in away matches and 7 at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 17 goals conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 11 goals conceded in away matches. In the last 8 away league matches West Ham United has a record of 2 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 9 points out of 24 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 5 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 16 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 9 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

West Ham comes for this match after a defeat, by 1-3, against Arsenal, thus adding the second consecutive defeat in this English league: the only goal of the team was signed by Ogbonna. In this out-of-doors clash, Commander Manuel Pellegrini must act with a defensive strategy, seeking only the counterattack to exploit the enemy's back. Forward Sébastien Haller is West Ham's top scorer with 4 goals scored. It should be noted that the visitors have several flaws in the offensive sector, since in the 8 away games they managed to score on average 0.88 goals per challenge. Out due to injury continue Cresswell, Lanzini and Fabianski.

Confirmed Lineup: David Martin, Fabián Balbuena, Angelo Ogbonna, Ryan Fredericks, Aaron Cresswell, Mark Noble, Pablo Fornals, Michail Antonio, Robert Snodgrass, Declan Rice, Sébastien Haller.
Coach: D. Moyes.
