Odds Presentation

Game Analysis

    • Southampton have won just one of their six previous Premier League matches against Aston Villa at St. Mary's, with both sides scoring in each clash (D2 L3).
    • Gabriel Agbonlahor has had a hand in three goals in his last three Premier League appearances against Southampton (two goals, one assist).
    • Tim Sherwood has won 54.5% of his first 33 Premier League games as a manager; only one Englishman has a better win rate from his first 33 PL matches - John Gregory (63.6%).
    • Saints have shipped exactly two goals in each of their last four games (D1 L3); they had conceded just eight in the previous 14. 
    • Since Tim Sherwood's first PL game in charge of Aston Villa, Christian Benteke (10) has scored more goals than any other player and from just 13 shots on target.
    • Tom Cleverley has netted three in his last three Premier League games after failing to score in his last 37 top-tier appearances before that.
    • Southampton have already set their best points return in the Premier League with 57. Indeed, Saints have won 34 points at home this season; three more against Villa will set a new record.
    • A win for the Villans will secure their Premier League status for next season. They were in the relegation zone with just 22 points before Tim Sherwood arrived at Villa Park.
    • 10 of Graziano Pelle's 11 Premier League goals this season have arrived at St. Mary's.
    • Fabian Delph has attempted more shots without scoring than any other Premier League player in 2014/15 (33, excluding blocked).
