Man City are still second in the Premier League standings, but just one point behind the leader Liverpool. Last week the Cityzens had a very tough visit to Wolverhampton Wanderers where they achieved a dramatic 2-1 win at the Molineux. John Stones became the hero for the champions as he scored the winning goal in the 95th minute of the match. Before him Josko Gvardiol scored for City as well.

 

Just as always, Pep Guardiola shall make some rotations in the line-up against Southampton. The level of the opposition gives him a chance to rotate the starting eleven. Players like Matheus Nunes, Savinho or Nathan Ake could start for the reigning champions.

 

Erling Haaland didn’t score against Wolves, but he remains the top striker of the league. The Norwegian super star has scored 10 goals since the beginning of the season.

 

Southampton are in the relegation zone of the league with just one point won from eight matches played. In their last five matches the Saints lost four times and won just one point. It seems that the days of the manager Russell Martin at the club are numbered.

 

Last week Southampton hosted Leicester City, but conceded a dramatic 2-3 defeat at the St. Mary’s. They actually had two goals advantage, but Leicester managed to turn the game around in their favour.
