Wolves vs Southampton Prediction & Betting Tips (9 November)

Not expected to be in such difficulty this season, Wolverhampton is unable to get going. Indeed, Mario Lemina's partners are quite simply last in the Premier League. Still waiting for a victory, 3 draws and 7 defeats, they are today 4 points behind the first non-relegation team. A reaction is eagerly awaited or risk getting dangerously stuck in the relegation zone . After having suffered 5 losses in a row, Wolverhampton showed more resistance during the last two days by sharing the points at Brighton 2-2 and against Crystal Palace last weekend 2-2 .

Back in the elite this season, Southampton is struggling to get up to speed and today occupies 19th place in the Premier League with 1 point ahead of their opponent of the day. The promoted side did not win any of their first 9 league matches but ended this drought last weekend. The Saints took advantage of the support of their fans to dominate Everton by the narrowest of margins 1-0. This very important result ended a series of 4 defeats in a row against Bournemouth , Arsenal, Leicester and Manchester City .

Several elements are missing for Wolverhampton this weekend. We find in the infirmary the potential starters Mosquera (defender) and Hee-Chan Hwang (attacker), the long-term absentee Boubacar Traoré, the young Nantes-trained defender Meupiyou and the replacement attackers Kalajdzic and Gonzalez. In the offensive sector, attackers Matheus Cunha (4 goals and 1 assist in PL) and Strand Larsen (4 goals and 1 assist in PL) are showing good things. On the other hand, Wolverhampton has the worst defense in the championship. On the Southampton side, replacement goalkeeper Bazunu, starting midfielder Smallbone and striker Stewart are missing, injured.

In addition, the interesting Scottish midfielder Fraser is uncertain. Scorer against Stoke in the League Cup and against Everton last weekend , Stuart Armstrong (1 goal in the PL, 24 goals and 13 assists in the Championship last year) should start this Saturday. His rise should help the Saints who have the worst attack in the championship.
