Southampton vs Arsenal Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Premier League 2024-25

The Gunners came out on top against the Saints previously this season.

Southampton are ready to host Arsenal in the match week 38 of the English Premier League 2024-25 season. The intense English football contest between the two teams will take place at St. Mary’s Stadium.

Southampton will face demotion at the end of the season. They were not competitive enough and lacked consistency. After contesting in 37 Premier League games this season, the Saints were only able to win a couple of matches. Now they go against the Gunners for their final match of this season.

Arsenal are likely to end their season in second spot on the Premier League table yet again. They did well, but it was not enough to win the league title. Mikel Arteta’s men will be looking for a win here as the season is coming to a close.

This is yet another trophyless season for the Gunners, but we can expect some changes in the squad during the summer transfer window.

Players to Watch

Paul Onuachu (Southampton)

The 30-year-old Nigerian forward is the top goal scorer for the Saints this season. Although he was only able to find the net four times this season, Paul Onuachu is going to be an important part of Southampton’s attack when they take on the Gunners next. He will be looking to step up and help the Saints with a positive end to the season.

Declan Rice (Arsenal)

Declan Rice has been one of the most important and top players for Arsenal this season. He is coming in after scoring a match-winning goal against Newcastle United in the previous Premier League clash for Arsenal. Rice has scored four goals and has bagged seven assists in 34 league games this season.
