Tip and bets
Burnley are desperate for a win, but we don't believe they can beat Southampton who just got their confidence back after defeating Arsenal. We will be backing the visitors in this game, who have a chance to get into the top-10.
Our prediction — Asian handicap (0) to Southampton
We do not expect a high-scoring game here. The opponents can't boast very powerful attacking lines, moreover, both sides are visibly tired at the end of the season. In 2 of the last 3 head-to-head games, the Saints claimed narrow wins, and we are predicting a similar result in the upcoming fixture.
Second bet — Southampton to win by 1 goal
