Southampton will face Leicester in Game week 26 of the English Premier League 2022/23 season.
Tournament – Premier League;
Date – 04/03/2023;
Kick-Off – 17:30 CET;
Venue – St. Mary’s Stadium (Southampton, Hampshire)
Southampton are aware they need to win their home matches if they fancy remaining in the top flight and because Leicester are struggling at the moment – three losses in their last three – they have a chance to seal a tight win.
Five of Southampton’s last seven matches ended with over 2.5 goals and three of Leicester’s last four games ended similarly, hence there’s a chance this game could end with over 2.5 goals.
