West Brom vs Southampton Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Ian John | in Championship Prediction
West Bromwich Albion take on Southampton on Friday night in the Championship with both teams having their sites set on Premier League football next season. The Baggies come into the game lying in 5th place in the table, eight points adrift of Ipswich in fourth, but four points clear of Norwich City in sixth. Carlos Corberan's team is in a rich vein of form at home, winning all their last five games, the most recent a 2-0 win over Cardiff City at The Hawthorns on Tuesday night. Teams do find it hard to score against the home side as West Brom have conceded just 11 goals in 16 home games this season, the second-best record in the division. They are one of three teams in the division who have won all their last five at home, the others being Leeds and their opponent's today, Southampton.
Southampton boss Russell Martin will have to galvanise his team after their shock 3-1 loss at Ashton Gate against Bristol City in midweek. In truth, the Saints were well beaten with City scoring three second half goals before Adam Armstrong's 95th minute consolation. That loss, combined with Leeds winning their game, saw the Saints drop to third in the table, two points behind Leeds but with a game in hand. That defeat ended a run of 22 games unbeaten, eight of the last nine being wins. The Saints have the second best away record in the division, even with that loss in midweek, but they are facing a team with the third best home record. The Saints lost all their last four games one after the other back in September. Another defeat here could signal the start of another poor run. A win however, would put them right back in the thick of things challenging for the automatic promotion spots.

2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer
One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
