Southampton vs Arsenal

Southampton host Premier League leaders at Arsenal on Sunday hoping for a huge upset at St Mary's, as Mikel Arteta's boys are heavy favorites.

Interim manager Steve Davis will remain in charge for the foreseeable future after Wolves were rejected by at least two targets to replace the recently departed Bruno Lage. The Foxes picked up a rare victory (their second of the season) as they beat Leeds 2-0 on Thursday. Kepa Arrizabalaga has kept five clean sheets in a row in all competitions and made some superb saves against Villa and Brentford as he’s keeping Edouard Mendy out of the team. Four changes for Chelsea with Chilwell, Sterling, Aubameyang and Thiago Silva all coming in. Chelsea have gone to a back 4 with the trio of Kovacic, Jorginho and Loftus-Cheek in midfield. Chelsea have no control. Chelsea much more dangerous now. Another great opportunity for Chelsea as Mount finds Sterling and his touch towards Aubameyang is too heavy. Chelsea head to RB Salzburg on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League and then head to Brighton on Saturday, Oct. Rashford, Aubameyang struggle: The forwards on both teams struggled to have an impact and perhaps both Chelsea and Manchester United will be better without a true No. Armel Bella-Kotchap suffered a shoulder injury against West Ham and will be out for a few weeks, at least, while right back Kyle Walker-Peters hobbled off against Bournemouth in midweek and is out for a long time with a hamstring issue. Bukayo Saka scored the winner for Arsenal at Leeds, while the Gunners are digging deep and putting in gritty displays.

Premier League leaders Arsenal are looking to make it nine wins on the spin in all competitions at St. Mary's on Sunday, facing off against a Southampton ...

It is a position they could never have imagined themselves in at the start of the season but as Granit Xhaka said after Thursday's win against PSV Eindhoven in the Europa League, this is an opportunity they must grasp. Still this is a team that tends to deliver its best performances at home to top sides, beating Arsenal in the top flight last season and Chelsea this. Arsenal: For Mikel Arteta's side, the task is simple, for now at least. Mary's, we have shown we can win against teams like Arsenal and Chelsea." It would be harsh indeed if a loss to the league leaders forced him to reconsider that stance but sacking season is very much upon us in the Premier League. Premier League leaders Arsenal are looking to make it nine wins on the spin in all competitions at St.

Premier League leaders Arsenal will head to St. Mary's for a tricky outing against Southampton, looking to record a fifth win on the bounce.

Moreover, injuries and absentees will play a part, and the Gunners should take all three points at St. The Hard Tackle predicts a 3-1 win for Arsenal on Sunday. Arsenal have scored a league-high ten goals and conceded only three goals, which remains the lowest on the road. The club have since extended his deal late, and Gabriel will be in inspired form ahead of a pivotal game against Southampton. With a shortage in the position, the Southampton manager could change the team’s shape to a back three. The rest of the team is easy to pick for Arteta. The Arsenal manager will also have to decide on his starting left-back. Arteta will focus on the trip to Southampton, expecting to collect all three points and continue their dominant start to the season. Arsenal have won their last three games in all competitions with a single goal, which the manager will want to improve. Aaron Ramsdale, Ben White, William Saliba, Thomas Partey, Gabriel Martinelli and Martin Odegaard will be in the starting eleven against Southampton. Mohammed Salisu made a vital goal-line clearance in the second half to keep his side’s advantage. Ralph Hasenhuttl will lean on the result at St.

Arsenal enters Sunday's Premier League fixtures one point ahead of Manchester City atop the table. The Gunners had the midweek off from league fixtures ...

My projections don’t show any value in fading the Gunners away from home this week as I have them projected as a 0.88 goal favorite. In away matches against non-promoted teams, the Gunners are conceding almost a full expected goal per match on average. The Gunners have a +1.7 xG difference per match at home this season, which is second best in the league behind only Manchester City. Their xGD is exactly 0.0 per FBref.com’s numbers and they’ve been quite fortunate to have a +7 actual goal difference in those matches. The Gunners have also improved on the defensive end when you compare their 2022-23 numbers to last year. They’ve had some encouraging attacking performances against some of the big six this year, including a goal scored against Spurs and 1.6 xG against Manchester United. Because of their defensive pressing nature, they can get exposed if the opponent is able to get enough time on the ball to pass through the midfield and defensive lines. Southampton’s biggest problem in comparison to years past, when they had better underlying numbers, is that they’ve struggled to keep the ball this season. The Saints will try to recreate the game plan that Leeds executed last weekend when the Peacocks played Arsenal off the pitch and took an undeserved 1-0 defeat in that match. Arsenal has been excellent this season, but is the defense vulnerable? They have a young, high-energy group that loves to run around the pitch. The Saints have a textbook identity under manager Ralph Hassenhuttl that has persisted throughout his tenure.

Arsenal arrive at St Mary's to face Southampton this afternoon full of confidence as they look to keep the momentum going.

[Mikel Arteta](/topic/mikel-arteta)’s side have lost just one match all season, a defeat at Old Trafford, but it’s been perfect apart from that and going into this weekend’s [Premier League](/topic/premier-league) action they had a four-point lead at the top of the table.

The Gunners will be looking to continue in the rich vein of form and pick up all possible points to remain in the title race. Southampton will be looking to cause an upset and win consecutive Premier League games against Arsenal, having beat them in April. They are currently sat at the top of the table.

It’s something we have to show on the pitch against a team who made it difficult for us last season, we have to prove we are the better team today. We need to go every three days, we know that will happen before the World Cup and after the World Cup, they need to be ready to do that." With just the two in the middle, this could be where Granit Xhaka, Thomas Partey and Martin Odegaard have the most joy. It seems as though the substitution of Takehiro Tomiyasu against PSV was indeed the sign that he would be starting against Southampton. The way of defending must be committed against a very good side that has good quality. It’s the dressing room, the away dressing room, they’ll be going out thinking they will win it, should win it. But if there was a place you could get success it would be against this man [Gabriel], gave a goal away against Fulham, penalty against Tottenham, against Liverpool he looked shaky and he can be rash, tries to win every ball. A sentence we might not have thought possible to use to describe Granit Xhaka at one stage. Jesus has had the best chances of the game but his five-game streak without a goal could reach six. What a finish it was from the free-scoring midfielder. Not that Southampton particularly look like scoring at the moment, touch wood, but the one-goal difference is just giving the home side that little bit of additional impetus. Referee Robert Jones is having a strange game, to say the least.
