Good day to all my beloved readers and comrades! I am pleased to talk about the Championship. Tomorrow on the "St. Mary's" football pitch, Southampton will be welcoming Leicester at their home ground. Let's see what we can expect from the teams and place a bet that will hopefully augment our bankroll.
Southampton: Bazunu; Walker-Peters, Bednarek, Harwood-Bellis, Manning; Smallbone, Downs, S. Armstrong; A.Armstrong, Adams, Edozi.
Leicester City: Hermansen; Pereira, Faezas, Vestergaard, Doyle; Ndidi, Winks, Dewsbury-Hall; Mavididi, Iheanacho, McAteer.
Last season, Southampton were relegated from the Premier League and had to descend to the Championship. Out of the last 5 matches, the club managed to overcome only 2 opponents. They lost to Gillingham (3:1) in the 1/64 of the English League Cup. In the second round with Norwich, they scored and conceded 4 goals each, ending the match in a draw. The third round witnessed them defeating Plymouth with a 1-goal advantage. In the fourth round, they triumphed over QPR (2:1). However, they conceded 5 unanswered goals from Sunderland in the fifth round.
In their last 5 outings, the team claimed 4 victories. In the second round, they defeated Huddersfield, scoring the only goal of the match. In the third round, they surpassed Cardiff by a single goal. In the fourth round, they beat Rotherham with a minimum advantage. In the 1/32 of the English Football League Cup, they scored 2 unanswered goals against Tranmere Rovers. However, they succumbed to defeat against "Hull" in the fifth round, conceding the solitary goal of the fixture.
Of the previous 5 matches between the clubs, Southampton were victorious twice. Leicester walked away with a win once, with two fixtures ending evenly. In their last face-off, Southampton beat their rivals with a minimal advantage.
Both teams have been a bit inconsistent in recent matches, showcasing not their best performance. However, Leicester appear stronger in the longer run. Therefore, I propose to trust the guests and place a bet on their victory with a draw.
