Southampton and Bristol City will meet at St. Mary’s in the EFL Championship on Tuesday night. The Saints are fourth in the league standings, while the Robbins are in 10th place after 43 games. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Southampton have been in stunning form over the last three months. They are now on 75 points with three games to go and could end Matchday 44 in second place in the league standings.
The Saints beat Swansea 2-1 over the weekend and are now on an eight-match win streak in all competitions. They have not lost a game in any competition since January 17 against Hull (W16 D3).
The hosts have won their last five home league games and are unbeaten in 10. They have also maintained clean sheets in four of their last five league matches at this venue.
Meanwhile, after featuring in the Playoffs last season, Bristol will not compete for promotion this term, as they currently trail the top six by nine points with just three games left to go.
The Robbins suffered a 4-2 defeat to Norwich on Saturday, a result that ended their three-match unbeaten run. However, they have kept clean sheets in two of their last three league matches.
The visitors are unbeaten in their last three away games (W1 D2) and have earned 30 points from 21 matches on the road this season.

Our Southampton vs Bristol City Prediction
While Bristol City have won their last two games against this opponent, including the reverse fixture in October, a lot has changed since then, as Southampton are now the hottest team in the Championship.
The Saints are riding an incredible 19-match unbeaten run since mid-January and beat Arsenal to progress to the semi-final of the FA Cup. They have won each of their last five home league games, and we feel they will add to that record in this one. Our Southampton vs Bristol City prediction is Southampton wins.
