Southampton v Norwich City: Premier League Action on Match-day 27

Next Friday at 9:00pm GMT, on matchday 27 of the Premier League, we will see Soton play Norwich at St. Mary’s Stadium.

It’s a clash of tenth vs twentieth, as Soton host Norwich at St. Mary’s Stadium.

This season’s Premier League campaign, has so far seen Southampton achieve 32 points

With a win in their previous game, (2-0) against Everton, Soton will likely be in a positive frame of mind.

Also, slow and steady wins the race, Soton are showing that they know by avoiding defeat in eight of their last nine games. They currently stand tenth in the League, with 32 points for a total of 7 wins, 7 losses and 11 draws having won seven matches, drawn 11 fixtures, and lost seven fixtures.

When Soton host Norwich, they will do so on the back of four wins, seven darts, and one losses on their own ground.

Southampton will have 35 points if they manage to secure a victory.

Going into Friday’s game, Ralph Hasenhuttl without three of his players, due to illness or injury.

Dean Smith’s Norwich, away to Southampton on Friday, hoping to improve relegation prospects

If Norwich’s season is to maintain on track, they must put their recent poor form to an end in this game. In their last two outings, they lost 3-1 at Liverpool and 0-4 at Manchester City.

Also, when you suffer eight defeats in the last 11 matches, it should come as no surprise that your team is very much struggling at the bottom of the League. But that is the situation that Norwich find themselves in. With 17 points, they currently sit twentieth in the League. The breakdown for the team’s record is 4 wins, 16 losses and 5 draws having won four games, drawn five meetings, and lost 16 matches.

It must be a worrying prospect for Norwich to go back on the road, with a bud run of away performances under their belt this season. So far they have only secured two victories, two draws, and eight defeats to the home team.

A win in this fixture, would take Norwich City’s points from 17 to 20, so far this season.

Norwich’s squad will likely be depleted of two of their key players when they start on Friday, due to injury or illness.
