Southampton - Wolverhampton prediction, H2H and probable lineups - March 15, 2025
One of the matches of the 29th round of the English Championship will be played on Saturday at St. Mary's Stadium, where local Southampton will host Wolverhampton. I suggest betting on goals in this clash with good chances of success.
Match preview
The team continues their unsuccessful attempts to cling to at least one point. After 28 rounds, they have only two wins, three draws, and are already 16 points behind the saving 17th place. Ivan Jurić's men approach the upcoming match with a series of four defeats, each with a goal difference of at least two goals. It is also worth noting that the club concedes the most in the Premier League - 68 goals.
The club has lost 10 of the last 11 matches in the championship, and Ivan Jurić's team is, in essence, one foot in the Championship. Most likely, by April, they will lose all mathematical chances of retaining their place in the Premier League. However, there is a chance to prolong their life in the top division, and it lies in defeating Wolverhampton.
Vítor Pereira's men failed to capitalize on the support of the home stands in the last two championship matches. First, Wolverhampton lost to Fulham (1-2), and then barely drew with Everton (1-1).
Currently, Wolverhampton occupies the 17th place in the standings, and most likely will not rise higher by the end of the season, as they are 10 points behind the nearest competitor. The team has won only two of the last 10 Premier League matches, adding two draws and six defeats.
Probable lineups
- Southampton: Aaron Ramsdale – Jan Bednarek, Ryan Manning, Taylor Harwood-Bellis – Kyle Walker-Peters, Lesley Ugochukwu, Tyler Dibling, William Smallbone – Kamaldeen Sulemana, Mateusz Fernandes, Albert Gronbek
