This may get ugly for honourable Russell Martin – unwavering in his strategy.
His facet make the brief journey throughout the south coast the place a conflict in types appears to be like sure to go well with the guests.
Southampton are one among three Premier League groups with a solitary level this time period and time-and-time once more their undoing has confirmed to be Martin’s stubbornness, unwavering allegiance to taking part in out from the again.
So, what occurs while you play top-of-the-line urgent sides within the division?
What are the perfect bets?
Only Tottenham (42) have accomplished extra tackles within the last third than BOURNEMOUTH (34). Combine that with the very fact Southampton high the charts for errors resulting in targets (4) and resulting in photographs (6) and issues start to look bleak for the guests.
Taking Bournemouth on the ASIAN HANDICAP (-1) appeals with the added safety of stakes returned if Bournemouth win by one aim.
Although Southampton have performed effectively at instances this time period, the fashion of play is the basis of the problem and their wasteful ending and poor defending doesn't assist.
The Saints rank third for xGA and fifth for ‘big chances’ (xG better than 0.35) missed. Most worrying of all although, they've generated an xG of seven.1 but solely scored twice, which is the fewest within the division, dropping to-nil in all-bar-one of their league video games.
Bournemouth ought to have little subject in outscoring the Saints on Monday.
Tyler Dibling has been one among few positives for the Saints.
The 18-year-old scored in opposition to Ipswich on his second top-flight begin and has been a ache for opposition left-backs in each his begins to this point, drawing 4 fouls in every.
Diogo Dalot dedicated 4 fouls in opposition to Dibling and Leif Davies dedicated two.
MILOS KERKEZ needs to be the person tasked with containing him, he has dedicated at the very least one each recreation this time period and his costs TO COMMIT 2+ and 3+ appeals Monday.
Although they aren't at the moment priced, will probably be value conserving an eye fixed out for Player Foul Matchup markets on Sky Bet or Paddy Power. I’ll be ready for Kerkez’s value to commit 1+, 2+ and 3+ fouls on Dibling.
Team information
Andoni Iraola doesn’t have any recent harm considerations from the facet which misplaced 3-0 at Anfield, Tyler Adams is the one participant unavailable for the hosts.
The Bournemouth boss should decide to shuffle his deck with Adam Smith probably coming in at proper again and Marcos Senesi in central defence.
The attacking quartet of Marcus Tavernier, Justin Kluivert, Antoine Semenyo and Evanilson ought to stay intact.
As for the guests, Martin may additionally title an unchanged facet from the one which earned its first level within the final recreation.
This would see Ben Brereton Diaz settle for a spot on the bench once more with Ryan Fraser and Dibling most popular on the flanks and Cameron Archer upfront.
Predicted line-ups
Bournemouth: Kepa; Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez; Cook, Christie; Semenyo, Kluivert, Tavernier; Evanilson.
Southampton: Ramsdale; Sugawara, Harwood-Bellis, Bednarek, Taylor; Lallana, Downes, Fernandes; Dibling, Archer, Fraser.
