Two sides in the promotion equation in the Championship, West Ham United and Southampton, are set to face off in the 12th round of matches. The two sides are five points apart, with West Ham currently second and Southampton eighth. West Ham have done well at home and dominated this fixture too, making them the pick in our prediction.
After 11 league games, West Ham’s ambition to go back to the Premier League at the first time of asking is very clear.
The Irons will be happy to return home following back-to-back away wins that stretched their undefeated run in the league to nine games. The latest of those wins was the biggest statement of their intent, beating league leaders Swansea 1-0.
Southampton will be well aware of the challenge they are about to face here. They are also strong contenders for promotion and will hope to get a top two slot.
The Saints almost achieved that last season, but it all ended in a scandal and a four-point penalty. Despite being docked points, the visitors are still in the frame at least for post-season playoffs.
They dropped points at home last time out, though, as they played out a 0-0 draw with Bolton Wanderers. That result extended their unbeaten run to three games, and they remain the second best defensively.
