Southampton vs. Tottenham Hotspur 12/28/21 Premier League Soccer Pick, Predictions, and Odds

Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur face off on Saturday in an English Premier League showdown on Tuesday at St. Mary’s Stadium. When these two teams faced off in April of 2021 it was Tottenham that came away with the 2-1 victory. 

Tottenham currently sits in 5th place in the standings having picked up 29 points. Tottenham has been a bit inconsistent their last few games, but they looked impressive on Sunday against Crystal Palace. The offense scored three goals starting with Harry Kane in the 32nd minute, and that was enough to come away with the victory. Tottenham has scored 21 goals total while their defense has given up 19 goals total. Son Heung-min has also been strong this year scoring eight goals and adding two assists. Harry Kane has also scored three goals and added one assist. 

On the other side of this matchup is Southampton who currently sit in 14th place in the standings having picked up 20 points. Southampton has scored five goals total over their last two games, and that has led them to picking up four points over their last two games. In the last game against West Ham, Southampton was able to win 3-2. Southampton has scored 19 goals total while their defense has given up 28 goals total. James Ward-Prowse has been the top player for Southampton scoring four goals and adding one assist. Armando Broja has also been strong, scoring four goals. In this game if Southampton wants to win this game, they are going to need the defense to be good, or this could be a long game. 

Southampton’s offense has been strong each of the last few games and they are going to find offensive success again in this game. Look for Tottenham Hotspur to also score a few goals and this game is going to be a high scoring affair. Back the over to cash. I also think there is some value with Southampton at plus money.
