Southampton vs Norwich City Prediction & Betting tips
Southampton won the relegation cracker against Watford with 2-1 last weekend. On Wednesday, Southampton will again play an important game in the lower regions of the Premier League, as Norwich City will be the opponent in St. Mary’s Stadium.
Southampton:
Ralph Hasenhüttl is with Southampton under the red line in the Premier League. To be precise, Southampton is eighteenth in the Premier League and has only two points behind Everton since last weekend, which is the first to be above the relegation line. Everton plays an away game at Liverpool on Wednesday evening and if Southampton manages to beat Norwich City on Wednesday, The Saints may be able to pass Everton on the rankings. Then there must first be won from Norwich City.
Saturday night a competitor came to visit St. Mary’s Stadium with Watford. Southampton trailed 0-1 against Watford in the first half, but still managed to score twice in the last twelve minutes of the second half. In retrospect, the equalizer of Danny Ings should not have been counted in the 78th minute, but they obviously have a crush on Southampton. With the 2-1 win over Watford, The Saints now have a four point lead over the top. Norwich City currently has one point less than the Hasenhüttl team.
Norwich City:
Norwich City has one point less than Southampton and is nineteenth in the Premier League. The Canaries became champions in the Championship last season and want to survive this season in the Premier League. In contrast to the other PhD students (Sheffield United and Aston Villa), Norwich City is under the red line. This is mainly because Daniel Farke’s team collected only one point in the Premier League between September 21 and November 8.
After the international break, things suddenly get better at Norwich City. For example, Everton was beaten 0-2 a week and a half ago at Goodison Park and Norwich City took a point in the home game with Arsenal last Sunday: 2-2. The Canaries took the lead twice on Carrow Road by hits from Teemu Pukki and Todd Cantwell, but also gave that lead away twice. A win over Everton and a draw against Arsenal, on the other hand, offers Norwich City enough perspective for the relegation cracker against Southampton on Wednesday evening.
