Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal will be aiming to maintain their push for the Premier League title on Saturday. The Gunners have been one of the standout defensive teams in the competition this term, conceding an xGA of just 6.10 from open play.
However, it has been their structure from corners and set pieces that have caught the eye. The Gunners have conceded an xGA of just 1.52 from corners, and that figure drops to 0.14 from set pieces. Arsenal have also attacked corners excellently, scoring three goals from 20 shots.
| Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) | W-W-W-D-D |
| Key Players to Watch | Gabriel, Bukayo Saka |
| Team Strengths | Dangerous from set pieces |
| Team Weaknesses | Injury to Odegaard limits their threat in the final third |
| Injuries and Suspensions | Ben White (Leg) Oleksandr Zinchenko (Calf) Martin Ødegaard (Ankle) Takehiro Tomiyasu (Knee) |
The pressure on Russell Martin continues to increase, as the Saints remain winless in six outings this term. A reason for their issues has been down to their knack of giving away clear opportunities throughout matches.
Southampton have conceded an xGA of 10.42 in the Premier League from open play this term. Despite this, they have been fairly structured from set pieces this season, allowing an xGA of just 0.64. But, it would be a minor concern that so much emphasis has been put on younger players such as Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Tyler Dibling.
| Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) | L-D-D-L-L |
| Key Players to Watch | Tyler Dibling, Maxwell Cornet |
| Team Strengths | Seem more adaptable on the counter-attack |
| Team Weaknesses | Conceding far too many chances from open play |
| Injuries and Suspensions | Will Smallbone (Hamstring) Juan Larios (Physical Discomfort) Gavin Bazunu (Achilles) |
The head-to-head makes for key reading when making an Arsenal vs Southampton prediction. Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 28 home matches against the Saints, winning 19 occasions across that period. However, the Saints are unbeaten in their last three matches against the Gunners.
Bet hereKai Havertz could be a player to study when making an Arsenal vs Southampton prediction on Saturday. The German was largely written off after a disappointing start to his career at the Emirates.
However, Havertz has started the new season in solid form. He has already scored three times in six appearances and continued his excellent form with a goal against PSG in midweek. Havertz is averaging three shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League.
Southampton’s open approach in the Premier League would be a major concern ahead of this fixture at the Emirates.
The Saints have typically opted for an attacking 4-2-3-1 formation, which could be a bad move by Russell Martin against a vibrant Arsenal forward line. The Gunners have opted for the same formation throughout the season, and the fact that they have better quality across the field will make them the obvious Arsenal vs Southampton prediction.
Arsenal’s record against newly promoted sides is the angle to follow. The Gunners have avoided defeat in their last 40 at the Emirates, winning on 35 occasions. While Arsenal don’t have the same expansive attacking displays as Liverpool and Man City, this could be a perfect opportunity to enhance their goal difference.
Bukayo Saka continued his excellent form by netting the second goal against PSG on Tuesday. The Englishman has registered 3.27 shots per 90 in the Premier League this term, and has already had six goal involvements.
