Southampton v Burnley Team News

In fact, this trend also appears in other competitions, and we have to go back to 2008 and the Championship to find the last away win in this fixture (9 games).

Closely placed in the table (7th and 10th), both teams have a lot of similarities this season. After 10 games, both teams have drawn a lot (4/10 matches each), and have both scored and conceded close to 1 goal per game.

Southampton and Burnley share yet another feature: they rank among the teams in the league least likely to see over 2.5 goals in their games (Southampton - 7 out of 10 games, Burnley - 8 out 10 games). 50% of both teams’ matches have ended under 1.5 goals.

Burnley’s first 5 away games this season were against Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool, Everton and Man City, 5 of the top 7 from last season. Remarkably, they went unbeaten before meeting Man City, winning at both Chelsea and Everton.

Southampton have failed to score in 3 out of 6 home games this season. Lethargic or fair, other parts of their game lack ‘action’ as well, as in those matches they have been awarded only 5 yellow cards in total!
