Southampton vs Crystal Palace

Since losing three Premier League games in a row against Everton, Liverpool and Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace have lost just two of their last 11 (W4 D5).

Southampton have just six points after 19 Premier League games this season (W1 D3 L15) – at the halfway stage of a Premier League campaign, only Sunderland in 2005-06 (6) and Sheffield United in 2020-21 (5) have also ever had as few as six points.

Southampton have gone 17 consecutive away top-flight games without a win for just the second time in their history, after a 19-game winless run between March 1985 and February 1986.

Crystal Palace have won each of their last three Premier League games against Southampton, just one fewer than they had in their first 25 against them in the competition (W4 D7 L14).

Only against Aston Villa (7) have Southampton won more Premier League away games than against Crystal Palace (6), though they are winless in their last three visits to Selhurst Park (D1 L2).

Crystal Palace have lost just one of their last 13 Premier League home games against promoted sides (W7 D5), going down 3-0 against Fulham in December 2022.

Crystal Palace won their final league game in each of 2021, 2022 and 2023 – they last did so in four consecutive calendar years between 1960 and 1963.

When playing in the top-flight, Southampton haven’t won their final league game of a calendar year since 2002 (2-1 vs Sunderland), with Saints drawing six and losing seven since then. When playing their final league game of the year away from home (all divisions), Southampton haven’t won since 1975 against Oxford United (D6 L10 since).
