How To Win Southampton Bets

Southampton finished 2016-17 season in eighth place. They probably would have finished higher if it weren't for some injuries to crucial players. Charlie Austin went down early in the season, while Virgil van Dijk suffered an injury that kept him out for large portions of the second half of the season. 

Jose Fonte was shipped to West Ham during the winter transfer period, magnifying the effect of van Dijk's injury. 

Southampton recently employed Mauricio Pellegrino as Claude Puel's replacement. He's got pretty big shoes to fill, and will find it hard to finish better than 8th place.

Southampton were poor at home, winning only six of 19 games at Saint Mary's. That was the fourth worst home record in the league, a mark that needs to be improved in coming seasons.

The Saints were much better on the road, enjoying the seventh best away record. That's an impressive record for a team that couldn't string together a run of good home results. They were organised and dogged on the road, something Puel should take credit for.

If Pellegrino can instill the same kind of discipline into his team, you should consider backing them on the road when the odds aren't favorable. They are good as a road underdog, something that shouldn't be overlooked.
