Crystal Palace will travel to the south coast on Wednesday night as they face a struggling Southampton side at St. Mary’s Stadium. With the two clubs in starkly contrasting form, the midweek matchup offers a clear opportunity for Palace to continue their impressive run, while Southampton look for a much-needed spark in what has been a miserable campaign.
Rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table, Southampton have endured a torrid season under Ivan Juric. With just nine points from 29 matches, their return to the Championship looks all but certain. The Saints have lost 10 of their last 11 games against top-flight opposition and signed off February with back-to-back 4-0 thrashings at the hands of Brighton and Chelsea. Adding to the gloom, their FA Cup hopes were extinguished by a 1-0 loss to Championship side Burnley last month.
Though Jan Bednarek returns from a head injury to bolster the Southampton defense, the Saints are still sweating over the fitness of midfielder Will Smallbone. Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu, who found the net before the international break against Wolves, is likely to be given a start as Juric looks to shake things up.

Our Southampton vs Crystal Palace Prediction
Crystal Palace are flying high. Oliver Glasner’s side sealed a place in the FA Cup semi-finals with a dominant 3-0 away win over Fulham at the weekend. That result extended their winning streak across all competitions to five matches. With momentum firmly on their side, Palace will aim to edge closer to the Premier League’s top half with another three points here.
Glasner’s squad will be without Cheick Doucouré due to injury, though Will Hughes is expected to return after missing the weekend’s action. Jean-Philippe Mateta, with 12 league goals this season, will once again lead the line, supported by a confident and in-form supporting cast. Defender Maxence Lacroix, a summer arrival from Wolfsburg, has settled well and will start at the back.
Crystal Palace’s recent record against Southampton is also encouraging, having won four of the last five meetings, including a 2-1 home victory in December. With six consecutive away wins under their belt and facing a side low on confidence and quality, the Eagles will be optimistic about extending their streak. Another Palace win seems likely at St. Mary’s. Our prediction for Southampton vs. Crystal Palace: Crystal Palace to win.
