Southampton vs Manchester City – Champions of England defending their title. Previously, Manchester City had reached the semifinals of the FA Cup. Also, they’ll be adamant about going all the way this time. Pep Guardiola places a high value on domestic dominance wherever he goes.
They have maintained their position at the top of the English Premier League for the majority of the season. In contrast, Southampton are languishing in the bottom half of the table and are currently on a losing streak.
They’re also giving up a lot of goals, and they’ve had a poor head-to-head record against this opponent in the past. The Citizens are expected to win this weekend at St. Mary’s Stadium, based on current trends.
Southampton vs Manchester City – Betting Analysis:
Southampton beat West Ham 3-1 in the FA Cup Round of 16 at St Mary’s Stadium. However, they’ve lost their last three games in a row and have a 0-3 record since then. They’d given up eight goals in the process, and their home record in the league during 2021-22 was just five wins.
In the Round of 16, City, on the other hand, defeated Peterborough 2-0 on the road. As a team, they had won 15 of their previous 19 games, including eight of ten road games.
In light of these facts, as well as previous head-to-head results, Manchester City should cruise to victory tomorrow.
It’s been a great season for Pep’s men, who have scored the second most goals in the EPL and allowed the fewest. In terms of goals, only Liverpool has scored more than them this season.
In the last 19 games, the team has only been beaten once, and that defeat came against Tottenham. Southampton, on the other hand, must amass a surplus of at least 14 points in order to qualify for the Europa League next season. In the past five months, they had only won three league games at home against teams ranked 15th or lower.
