Wolves v Southampton
📅
Kick Off: Saturday 9th November at 15:00
🏆
Competition: Premier League
Wolves’ hunt for a first Premier League win of the season continues this weekend when they play host to Southampton at Molineux. Although the Saints recorded their own inaugural win of the campaign at home to Everton last Saturday, they still begin this weekend sitting in the bottom three.
⭐ Wolves v Southampton Best Bets
Not since the season’s opening weekend has a Wolves game not finished with both teams getting themselves on the scoresheet. Nine successive games where there have been goals at both ends and in addition to this, Gary O’Neil’s men have not kept any clean sheets in their last 21 league attempts.
To add further weight to this selection, Southampton has not only kept just one clean sheet in the league this season but also scored in five of their last six league outings. The two sides have conceded 46 goals between them this season; just one each will be enough on Saturday.

🟠 Jorgen Strand Larsen
Jorgen Strand Larsen has scored four Premier League goals this season – three at Molineux.
The Norwegian has scored in four individual league matches – a 40% hit rate this season. This season has seen Southampton’s defence concede an average of 1.90 goals per game
🔴 Flynn Downes
Flynn Downes has made 10 Premier League appearances this season, averaging 1.80 fouls per game. He has given away two fouls in his last three league outings.
The midfield battle with Joao Gomes will be of interest as the Wolves midfielder has given away 2.10 fouls on average and been fouled an average of 0.90 times this season.

Kyle Walker-Peters has made eight league appearances for Southampton this season and has been fouled an average of 1.88 times per game.

💻 Wolves v Southampton Form and Tactics
Wolves have failed to win any of their last 13 Premier League matches. A run that started at the back end of last season after suffering three successive defeats and has continued at the start of this with no win in 10 attempts. Of the last 39 points on offer, Gary O’Neil’s men have picked up just three.
Manager Gary O’Neil has been known to show tactical flexibility since his time at Molineux. Although the 3-4-2-1 formation has been favoured in the past couple of weeks, the former Bournemouth boss is just as comfortable setting his team up with a back four in defence.
Southampton have been known to implement a possession-based style under manager Russell Martin and this signified by a current average possession of 55.1% in the Premier League – joint-fifth highest with fellow South Coast outfit Brighton.
Martin oversaw Southampton’s first league win of the season last Saturday, setting his players up in a 5-4-1 formation. However, that is not the only shape that the Saints can operate in; 4-5-1, 4-2-3-1, and 3-5-2 have also been utilised since their promotion to the Premier League.
