Crystal Palace vs Southampton Prediction: Can Southampton players show their best qualities?

Crystal Palace will host Southampton. Another meeting between the clubs will take place for access to the fourth round of the FA Cup. Can Southampton players show their best qualities and break the losing streak?

Crystal Palace has been playing erratically since the season's resumption in England. The team lost to Fulham with a score of 0:3. Next, the Eagles confidently beat Bournemouth on the road, scoring two unanswered goals. In this Midweek game, Crystal Palace failed to cope with the leaders of Tottenham and suffered a crushing 0:4 defeat. The club is in 12th place in the English league table.

The situation at Southampton is much worse if we take the current EPL season. They played three games after the break, and all disappointed their fans with defeats. Nathan Jones' side lost to Brighton (1:3), Fulham (1:2), and Nottingham Forest (0:1). Southampton dropped to last place in the standings.

Let's consider an exciting statistic again suggesting a possible defeat for the Saints. Southampton has lost six of their last eight cup matches against teams representing the Premier League. There is now a severe game crisis in the visitors' position; the club is considered one of the leading contenders for relegation from the EPL. However, the team can make every effort for good performances in the Cup. Eagles must also come to their senses after two crushing defeats in the three meetings after the break. We expect a reasonably productive game and a win for the Londoners.
