It’s been a miserable campaign in the Premier League for Southampton, and they remain on course to be relegated to the Championship with a record-low points tally. They’ve suffered defeats in their last nine at home, becoming the third team in top-flight history to endure that scale of a losing home run.
Southampton have been abysmal at both ends of the field this season. They’ve only scored 16 goals from an open-play xG of 23.96, and have conceded a staggering 51 from an xGA of 61.97.
However, the hosts could welcome back the injured trio of Jan Bednarek, Will Smallbone, and James Bree on Wednesday. Ryan Fraser and Ross Stewart remain out.
Southampton predicted lineup vs Crystal Palace: (3-4-2): Ramsdale; Walker-Peters, Bednarek, Bella-Kotchap; Sugawara, Aribo, Ugochukwu, Manning; Dibling, Archer; Sulemana.
Oliver Glasner’s Crystal Palace will already have their sights set on an FA Cup semi-final after a strong 3-0 win at Fulham on Saturday. That victory means they’ve now recorded four wins on the bounce across all competitions, and have kept clean sheets in three fixtures over that period.
Crystal Palace have still struggled in front of goal, despite improved results. They’ve scored 21 goals from an open-play xG of 38.30, and have underperformed in terms of xG in recent wins against Aston Villa and Ipswich. Defensively, they conceded 26 from a xGA of 32.10.
Jean-Philippe Mateta returned from injury in the cup on Saturday. However, Glasner will still be without the suspended Will Hughes, and the injured Cheick Doucoure and Chadi Riad.
Crystal Palace predicted lineup vs Southampton: (3-4-2-1): Henderson; Richards, Lacroix, Guehi; Muñoz, Wharton, Lerma, Mitchell; Eze, Sarr; Mateta.
Bet hereSouthampton are one of the worst sides in Premier League history, and it would be challenging to make a case for them winning another game this season.
Their fortunes are unlikely to change against Crystal Palace on Wednesday. Glasner’s team won their last three games in the league and went nine without a defeat in away matches.
Palace also hold the head-to-head advantage after winning each of their previous four against Southampton, including wins on their last two trips to St. Mary’s.
Under 4.5 cards looks like a standout Southampton vs Crystal Palace prediction this week. The hosts have normalised 2.59 cards per game, but only had over 4.5 cards in 38% of their fixtures.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace average 2.07 per 90, and they have breached the mentioned benchmark in 43% of their meetings.
Eberechi Eze is a man in form, and he could be the standout scorer angle. The attacking midfielder has netted two in as many appearances for Crystal Palace and England, and accumulated an xG of 6.20 from an average of 3.83 shots per 90 in 2024-25.
