Southampton are set to host Manchester City in the Premier League matchday 14 on Saturday. The kick-off is at 15:00 GMT.

Preview

You'd probably be surprised to find out that the Saints sit in third in the PL standings, four points ahead of the Citizens, prior to their clash with Pep Guardiola's men on the weekend. City, however, have a game in hand over So'ton. In-form Ralph Hasenhuttl's side drew Arsenal 1-1 in midweek and will be looking for points against City as well.

The Citizens, for their part, shared points with Man United and West Bromwich in the league over the last seven days. City badly need a victory at St Mary's in order to stay in the title race.

While the visitors are likely to be without Eric Garcia and Oleksandr Zinchenko, Hasenhuttl has a fully fit squad at his disposal for Saturday's encounter.

Prediction

Even though City have struggled with consistency this term so far, Guardiola has beaten Hasenhuttl's side in five out of their six head-to-head meetings since the German's arrival at St Mary's in 2018. We'd say that the Citizens will end their two-game run without a win in the Premier League at So'ton.

Tip

Manchester City to win at 1.5 with 1XBET.
