Southampton and Brentford face off on Tuesday in an English Premier Leagues showdown at St. Mary’s Stadium. When these two teams last faced off in September of 2020 it was Brentford that came away with the 2-0 victory. 

Southampton currently sits in 14th place in the standings having picked up 21 points. Southampton hasn’t had a terrible season, but they have lost a lot of games that they really could have won. In the last game against Tottenham, they played to a 1-1 draw. James Ward-Prowse was the goal scorer in that game in the 25th minute. Mohammed Salisu did pick up a red card in the 39th minute so he will have to miss this game. Southampton has scored 20 goals total while their defense has given up 29 goals total. Ward-Prowse has been the top player for Southampton scoring five goals and adding one assist. In this game if Southampton wants to get the job done they are going to need the offense to be good. 

On the other side of this matchup is Brentford who sits in 12th place in the standings having picked up 23 points. There were many who believed Brentford would be relegated this season, but that doesn’t look like it’s going to be the case. In the last game against Aston Villa, the offense put up two goals and that was enough to win the game. Brentford has scored 23 goals total while their defense has given up 26 goals total. Ivan Toney has been the top player for Brentford scoring four goals and adding two assists. 

These are two teams who can both score, and I expect there will be a couple of goals by both teams. There really isn’t a strong play either way on the side, but this game is going to go over the total. Back the over to cash.
