Bournemouth will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League this weekend when they travel to St. Mary's Stadium to take on Southampton on Saturday afternoon. The Saints are rooted to the bottom of the league table with just nine points while the Cherries are in seventh place with 40 points after 24 games. Check out our match prediction below!
After losing only two of their first 11 Premier Leagues meetings with Bournemouth (W5 D4 L2), Southampton have now lost their last two encounters with this opponent, including a 3-1 defeat in the reverse fixture back in September. Having beaten this opponent in the last encounter, the Cherries now have the opportunity to complete the league double over the Saints for the first time ever, in what is the 15th different campaign in which they have met.
The visitors are the out-and-out favourites in this match, but can the hosts start building up momentum after a rare league victory in their last outing? Let’s head to the key stats and try to find out.

Southampton - Bournemouth: Form Analysis
Southampton are enduring a nightmare season, as they are 10 points from safety after 24 games and will need an incredible run of results over the final third of the season to avoid the drop.
However, the Saints did manage a crucial victory in their last match, beating fellow relegation candidates Ipswich 2-1 on the road. That result followed 13 consecutive league games without victory.
Still, the hosts’ home form does little to inspire confidence in their chances here, as they are riding a six-match losing streak and conceded three or more goals in all but one of those games.
Southampton have not won back-to-back Premier League games since February 2022!
Meanwhile, Bournemouth have been one of the surprise packages this season, and a victory this week could see them move above Manchester City into the top five in the league standings.
The Cherries lost their last league games 2-0 to Liverpool, but that result came after a sensational 11-match unbeaten run in the top flight which included seven wins and four draws.
On the road, the visitors have avoided defeat in their last six league games (W4 D2 L0) and have scored two or more goals in their last seven dating back to the end of October last year.

Southampton & Bournemouth Squad Analysis
Southampton are likely to have to make do without the services of Taylor Harwood-Bellis, who sustained an ankle injury against Ipswich which forced him to sit out the FA Cup defeat last week.
Joining him on the sidelines this week are Ryan Fraser (muscle) and Ross Stewart (hamstring), while Flynn Downes and Jack Stephens are dealing with knocks are are flagged as doubts.
Justin Kluivert has scored five goals in his last four league matches for Bournemouth!
The Cherries’ record this season is all the more impressive when considering the number of players they currently have sidelined with injuries.
Enes Unal is out for the season with a cruciate ligament tear, while Alex Scott, Luis Sinisterra, Julian Araujo and Marcos Senesi have all been sidelined for over two full months.
Adam Smith (muscle), Evanilson (toot) and James Hill (hamstring) have missed nine, seven and four games respectively, and are unlikely to feature this weekend.

Our Southampton vs Bournemouth Prediction
While Southampton pulled off a much-needed victory last time out, that result marked only their second top-flight win this season which makes it difficult to suggest a turnaround in their performance is forthcoming.
Bournemouth, on the other hand, have been one of the toughest sides to beat in recent times and will be determined to get back in the win column after what many considered an unlucky defeat to Liverpool in their last league game. Our Southampton vs Bournemouth prediction is Bournemouth wins the match.
