West Ham vs Southampton: Form, Recent Games, and News

West Ham Preview

West Ham are finally picking up speed and they may soon become a dangerous team. They have one of the weakest attacks in the current campaign but what kept them away from the bottom has been the solid defense. So, as long as West Ham continues to keep clean sheets and starts to score more goals, we expect them to reach a higher position and remain in the Premier League.

Players to Watch: Jarrod Bowen (West Ham)

West Ham have been one of the lowest-scoring teams in the Premier League this season and none of their players have scored more than five goals. But Jarrod Bowen has been quite effective overall and West Ham win each game in which he scores a goal. It happened in 8 games total in all tournaments this season and West Ham won every single one.

Southampton Preview

Southampton has had some serious struggles this season both in attack and defense. The team is in danger of getting relegated unless they find an improvement. Fortunately, the relegation battle this season in the Premier League is between literally half the league and with a couple of wins, Southampton can escape this and remain in the elite.

Players to Watch: James Ward-Prowse (Southampton)

Now that Che Adams is injured – Southampton's main man in attack, we are left with James Ward-Prowse – a man who is going for the all-time free-kick goal record in the Premier League. If Southampton get a free kick at a suitable distance, James can score it.
