Learn about team form, strategies, and what to expect in this crucial matchup.

Southampton, managed by Russell Martin, is enduring a tough Premier League season. They currently sit in last place with only six points from 17 matches. Recent performances have been a mix of draws and losses, highlighting both defensive and offensive struggles. In their most recent match, they drew 0-0 against Fulham, a game that exposed their lack of finishing in front of goal.

Previously, they were defeated by Liverpool in the EFL Cup and suffered a heavy 0-5 loss to Tottenham in the league. Although they managed a 1-1 draw against Brighton, the team still lacks the consistency needed to compete at this level. Southampton must capitalize on their home advantage to seek a positive result and climb out of the relegation zone.

West Ham, under the guidance of Julen Lopetegui, is in 14th place with 20 points. While the team has shown some balance in recent matches, their performances have been inconsistent. In their most recent match, they drew 1-1 against Brighton, showcasing solid defense but failing to capitalize on scoring opportunities.

Previously, they also drew 1-1 with Bournemouth and secured a thrilling 2-1 win over Wolverhampton. However, losses to Leicester and Arsenal highlight areas for improvement, particularly in defense. West Ham will look to exploit Southampton's vulnerabilities to claim three points and move closer to the upper half of the table.
