Anytime goal scorers
West Brom- Callum Robinson- After scoring a brace against Chelsea in his last game, the Welsh international will be hungry for more goals. He will fancy his chances of scoring against Southampton.
Southampton- Danny Ings- Ings is perhaps one of the best strikers in the Premier League who is capable of punishing any side. The West Brom defence will have their work cut-out to contain him.
Our Odds And Tips In Detail
Southampton have dominated the recent meetings between the sides, a fact that will give them plenty of confidence heading into the game. They will also be keen to exploit the weaknesses of the Baggies. Due to their vulnerable position, West Brom will be forced to attack but this could backfire in light of their weak defence.
I expect Southampton to win 2-0.
