West Bromwich VS Southampton Match Prediction

Southampton will win this match.
Southampton have won the last five fixtures between the two sides, meaning you have to go back to New Years Eve 2016 for the last time the Baggies won. When they met earlier in the season, the Saints ran out 2-0 winners with goals from Moussa Djenepo in the first half and Oriol Romeu on 69 minutes. The overall record between the teams was remarkably close before Southampton embarked on their current run, they lead the head to head 32-24 with 24 draws.
Southampton are favourites and can be backed at 6/5 with 10Bet to win

West Brom’s form under Sam Allardyce has been such that successive wins seem even more unlikely than the original victory away at high-flying Chelsea. Southampton have been equally fallible, but their win from 2-0 down last week could well be the turning point for them. We are backing Southampton to snatch three points at The Hawthorns.
It’s 19th v 14th in this fixture with the Baggies in need of a win to make it successive victories for the first time this season. A win for West Brom would see them move up to 24 points with 7 games remaining, a defeat or even a draw would probably mean that their realistic hopes of survival are over. For the Saints, a win would take them to 39 points, 13 points clear of Fulham in 18th and secure in the knowledge that they will be in the top flight again next season. The Premier League match takes place on April 12 and the live action at The Hawthorns kicks off at 18:00 local time.
