Southampton vs Arsenal 16.04.2022

Southampton’s terrible slide continued unabated at the weekend as they got handed a footballing lesson by Chelsea who whopped them 6-0 with some dazzling attacking clinic. The Saints are now winless in their last 6 league matches and look like a pale shadow of the team that went unbeaten at home from mid-October to the beginning of March.

Arsenal are also going through a bad patch themselves. Back-to-back losses to midtable outfits Crystal Palace and Brighton have dented their quest for Champions League qualification, with Tottenham pouncing on the opportunity to leapfrog them in the race for 4th place.

With both teams eager to get a win to turn around their failing fortunes, we can expect a close and competitive affair here. We nevertheless feel the Gunners have just about enough to edge it by a correct score of 1-2

Main tip: Correct Score 1-2 (go to tip details)
