Common Mistakes In Halftime/Fulltime (HT-FT) Betting

Confounding critics with their wonderful performances this term, Southampton have been one of the better sides in the league so far. With their players ticking so well on the pitch, the Saints are such a joy to behold.

In stark contrast, Arsenal are failing to live up to pre-season expectations, as they continue to languish in the bottom-half of the standings. Entering the second-half of the season, the Gunners will be looking to shake things up a bit, perhaps starting with a win in this upcoming contest.

Southampton vs Arsenal Team News

With a fantastic return of 29 points from 18 matches, Southampton find themselves in 10^th place on the log, only four points adrift the European places. Within reach of the top-five, Soton will feel confident about their chances of clinching continental football.

Exciting with the ball, Southampton are giving their loyal fans their time’s worth this season. To be honest, even the most critical of pundits would not find any valid reasons to throw shades at this overperforming lot.

In tip-top form on the last matchday, Hasenhuttl’s men delivered a dogged performance to send holders Arsenal crashing from the FA Cup as early as in the fourth round via a narrow 1-0 win. Prior to that triumph, the Saints fell to a disappointing 2-0 PL defeat to Leicester City.

Despite being outplayed on the day, Southampton will not feel too disappointed by the game’s outcome, given the quality of opposition they were up against. It is worth noting that Soton have been slacking lately, winning only one of their previous five matches.

Impressively, that singular victory came against defending champions Liverpool. They will be looking to address their recent league snag when Arsenal come visiting in midweek. Enduring a woeful league campaign, the Gunners are placed just below Soton on the log.

Much to the dismay of club supporters, they were even knocked out from their beloved Emirates FA Cup last time out, after succumbing to defeat to this same Southampton team. Now, they will be hell-bent on avenging that acrimonious cup exit.

Apart from that, Arsenal have actually been brilliant in the Premier League. Since getting the better of Chelsea on Boxing Day, they have gone on to win three of their previous four games. Back in league action on Tuesday, expect Arteta’s men to go all out for the win.

Southampton vs Arsenal Predictions

Two teams pretty much equally matched on paper battling it out for maximum points – this has all the makings of a cracker! Though Southampton are going through a rough patch, they cannot be completely ruled out of this one.

Arsenal are in much better league form than Soton, but taking into consideration their inconsistencies, backing them for an outright win could be criminal. We are inclined to tip this to be a low-scoring encounter, with no more than two goals on the sheet come fulltime.
