After yet another loss, the struggling Saints are back in action on Saturday, and as they continue to fight for their Premier League survival, a fight that they're currently losing, they're up against the Seagulls, who come into this fixture off the back of two wins.
There was a glimmer of hope for Ivan Juric's men a couple of weeks ago, when they got the better of Ipswich away from home, but any positive flames ignited by that win have promptly extinguished. First off, the Saints lost to Championship opposition in the FA Cup, before coming unstuck on home soil against Bournemouth last weekend. They'll be looking to improve against another of the south-coast teams here, though improvement doesn't exactly look to be forthcoming.
The Brighton boys found themselves on the wrong end of a rather humiliating beating at Nottingham Forest recently, losing by seven goals to zero, though they've since bounced back, beating Chelsea in the FA Cup, before defeating the same opponents in the league last time out, winning by a comfortable margin of three goals. That effort should send Fabian Hurzeler's men to St. Mary's in good spirits.

Our Southampton vs Brighton Prediction
Sure, the Saints are struggling, and yes, they are on their way back down to the Championship, but in recent weeks, young forward Kamal-Deen Sulemana has performed with real credit, so much so that he's worth betting on to register a shot on target against a Brighton side that does tend to be open on the road. Having scored last weekend, the hungry youngster will be looking to do more damage, and given his rather encouraging recent shot stats, he's worth betting on to do just that.
Southampton vs Brighton Prediction: Kamal-Deen Sulemana Over 0.5 Shots on Target.
