After a surprise 1:0 win over Chelsea, Southampton traveled to Leeds United. In a significant encounter, the Saints lost to a rival in the fight for survival (0:1). With 18 points, the club remains at the bottom of the standings in the English league. The Saints collapsed at home against lowly Grimsby (1:2) this week and finished in the FA Cup.
Leicester
Leicester is having another game crisis. Counting on points in the last two rounds of the EPL was not easy for the Foxes, as the opponents were from the top 3. First, the team suffered a devastating away defeat to Manchester United (0:3), then the club lost at home to leading Arsenal (0:1). Leicester is 14th in the table with 24 points. If the opponents in the EPL were top, then it would be difficult to explain the team's failure in the round of 16 in the Cup. At home to King Power, Leicester suffered a 1:2 defeat at the hands of Blackburn Rovers and dropped out of the tournament.
Expert Betting Tips
Both clubs approach the encounter with a loss in the FA Cup. We can expect active action in attack from Southampton and Leicester players. It's time for the home team to put all their efforts into the fight for survival. A win will not allow the Saints to escape from the relegation zone but will increase the pressure on their rivals. Leicester is 14th in the EPL, but only three points ahead of the relegation zone. For this reason, Rodgers' team should not be allowed to misfire in games against clubs from the bottom of the table. We expect a lot of action at Southampton.
