West Ham United vs Southampton match preview
A huge relegation six-pointer between two clubs who were promoted together in 2012, and are both desperate to secure a 12th successive season in the top-flight.
Despite seeing an upturn in results under Rubén Sellés, Southampton are bottom of the table, albeit just four points separates them and Crystal Palace in 12th.
A fortnight ago, the Saints battled back from 1-0 and then 3-1 down to earn a draw with Tottenham at St Mary’s.
Theo Walcott halved the deficit 12 minutes from the end, before James Ward-Prowse smashed home a penalty deep into stoppage time.
So, since Sellés replaced Nathan Jones in mid-February, he’s accumulated eight points from six matches, notably beating Chelsea and drawing at Old Trafford.
Nevertheless, this has done nothing to improve their league position, so will the Saints go march into another crucial victory here?
The Irons held Aston Villa to a 1-1 draw in their last league outing, with Saïd Benrahma equalising from the penalty spot.
Nevertheless, this means David Moyes’ men have won just two of their last 14, with all five of their Premier League victories since August coming at home.
Southampton won 3-2 at the London Stadium on Boxing Day last season, but haven’t won back-to-back visits to the East End since 1992.
Who will claim a priceless victory here?
West Ham United team news
Goalkeeper Łukasz Fabiański has missed their last five matches with a fractured eye socket and, if he’s not available, Alphonse Areola will continue to deputise.
Who David Moyes decides to go with up front is anyones guess.
Danny Ings bagged a brace in their last league win, but both Michail Antonio and Gianluca Scamacca have scored against AEK Larnaca in the Europa Conference League since then.
Lucas Paquetá, Declan Rice and Tomáš Souček were all in action during the international break, and that midfield trio will be key if West Ham are going to survive.
Predicted XI (4-3-3): Areola; Johnson, Aguerd, Zouma, Emerson; Rice, Souček, Paquetá; Bowen, Benrahma, Antonio.
Southampton team news
Armel Bella-Kotchap and Jan Bednarek have started every match at centre-back together under Rubén Sellés, but both went off injured in the first half against Tottenham.
If neither is fit, Mohammed Salisu and Duje Ćaleta-Car will come in.
Ché Adams hobbled off during Scotland’s win over Cyprus last weekend, so Sékou Mara could lead the line.
Along with Adams, Theo Walcott was on target a fortnight ago, so is seeking to score in back-to-back Premier League games for the first time since August 2018.
Predicted XI (4-5-1): Bazunu; Walker-Peters, Ćaleta-Car, Salisu, Perraud; Lavia, Alcaraz, Ward-Prowse, Walcott, Elyounoussi; Mara.
