Manchester City – Southampton : Preview & Prediction
Manchester City, 5th in the Premier League just 1 point from the top of the table, face a weak side from Southampton, 14th, who have yet to win a league game this season. The Citizens have been walking on water since their defeat at Tottenham (1-0) on August 15. During this last month of competition, the Mancunian club recorded 4 successes, current series, and left no chance to their opponents. The Citizens crushed Norwich (5-0), Arsenal (5-0) and Leipzig (6-3) in the Champions League on September 15 before winning at Leicester City (1-0) a few days earlier . Humiliated 5 goals to 2 at the Etihad Stadium on March 10, Southampton, deprived of its two best attacking elements (Long and Walcott) for this trip, will find it difficult to resist the best attack in the Premier League. The Saints have won only 1 game this season, in the EFL Cup in Newport (8-0), and lost to Everton (3-1) then shared the points with MU (1-1), in Newcastle (2-2) and against West Ham (0-0) on the last day.
Manchester City beat Southampton 5 to 2 at the Etihad Stadium last season.
City has just humiliated Leipzig (6-3) this Wednesday evening in the Champions League.
The Citizens are on an ongoing 4-game winning streak.
Southampton have won just 1 match in their last 6 outings in all competitions.
Manchester City have the best attack (11 goals) and defense (1 goal) in the Premier League.
Manchester City have won 9 of their last 10 duels against Southampton … The Citizens’ victory seems to be a formality and no doubt they will add the way.
