Southampton vs Arsenal Free Betting Tips – FA Cup
In the middle of the week, Southampton validated their ticket for the Round of 16 of the FA Cup following their victory at home against Shrewsbury (2-0). The Saints have a very honourable league so far and are ranked 9th in the Premier League. Less consistent in recent weeks, they have won only once during the last 6 days, for 3 draws and 2 losses. After a surprise victory at home against Liverpool (1-0), Southampton fell to Leicester last weekend (2-0).
In the previous round, Arsenal had to work to overcome, at home, Newcastle (2-0 after extra time). The only 10th in the Premier League with 2 points of disbursement on their opponent of the day, the Gunners do not meet expectations at all so far. Nevertheless, after a very complicated period, they have found a smile for some time, as evidenced by the ongoing series of 5 games without defeat (4 wins and 1 draw). Last Monday, Arsenal easily took the measure, at home, of Newcastle (3-0).
The workforce for Southampton vs Arsenal
Southampton still records the withdrawals of defensive tauliers Vestergaard and Romeu, the potential holder Djenepo and the usual substitutes Redmond, Obafemi and Tella. Meanwhile, covid-hit top scorer Danny Ings is also missing, with offseason rookie Salisu still not playing this season.
Arsenal is still deprived of replacement defender Pablo Mari, injured. Very disappointing this season, striker Aubameyang woke up in the last game by scoring a brace. Young attacking midfielder Smith-Rowe is settling into the heart of the Gunners’ game. Note the departure of the undesirable Ozil towards Fenerbahce.
