West Ham almost pulled an upset against Liverpool last week but were eventually defeated. They will now return home after two very tough matches on the road, and will play host to Southampton on Saturday. The visitors are coming off a nice win but have also struggled lately.

Southampton (10-13-4) were tremendous in their home match against Aston Villa last week, scoring once at the start and once in the end of that match for the final 0-2. However, that was just their second win in their last seven matches in all competitions (2-4-1). Southampton are now sitting at the 12th spot of the league table with 34 points, with a safe 10-point distance from the red zone. They have been quite competitive on the road so far (6-5-2), winning four of their last six (4-2-0).

West Ham (6-15-6) came back from one goal behind to take a 2-1 lead in Liverpool but eventually lost that match by 2-3. They were quite competitive in their last two matches but are still win-less in their last eight matches (0-6-2). The Hammers are sitting at the 18th spot of the Premier League with 24 points, still one below the red line. They have been poor at home so far (3-7-3), with just one win in their last 11 home matches in all competitions.

West Ham did great to beat Southampton by 1-0 on the road earlier in the season, and had also won both matches last season. They have been excellent as hosts against Southampton over the years (9-3-1) and should have the first say in this match.
