Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is the occurrence of some goals. Both Southampton and Sunderland have been playing positive football in their recent games, with constant transitions that pose a threat to the opposing defense. It's worth noting that the "Over 2.5 Goals" market has been successful in seven of Southampton's last eight official matches and in the last encounter between the two teams. Therefore, we expect both teams to maintain their playing style, and scoring opportunities to arise frequently.

Preview
Southampton and Sunderland face at St. Mary's Stadium, in a match for the 37th round of the Championship. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 02‑09‑2023, Sunderland got a home win by (5‑0). Oddly enough, the head‑to‑head record favours Sunderland: in the last 1 match they won 1. Sunderland registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Southampton

The home team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 70 points won, after 21 wins, 7 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Millwall, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Birmingham City, by (3‑4). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 12 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses at their stadium, with 41 goals scored and 12 conceded. For the league, Southampton won 24 points out of 30 possible points, after 8 wins and 2 losses in the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 13 of the last 17 for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 35 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Southampton enters this match motivated after an away triumph, defeating Birmingham 4-3, with goals from Adam Armstrong, David Brooks, Ché Adams, and Joe Aribo. The home team typically operates in a 4-3-3 formation, emphasizing a fast-paced style of play with frequent transitions. In this setup, Stuart Armstrong, Ché Adams, and David Brooks are tasked with causing havoc in the opposing defense. In midfield, Will Smallbone, Flynn Downes, and Stuart Armstrong are expected to feature. Coach Russel Martin may not have Ross Stewart, Kamaldeen Sulemana, and Juan Larios available due to ongoing recovery from injuries.

Confirmed Lineup: Gavin Bazunu, Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Jack Stephens , Jan Bednarek, Ryan Manning, Stuart Armstrong, Will Smallbone , Flynn Downes, Adam Armstrong, David Brooks, Ché Adams.
Coach: R. Hasenhüttl.

Analysis Sunderland

The away team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 47 points won, after 14 wins, 5 draws and 17 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Norwich City, by (1‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Leicester City, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 8 wins and 7 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 21 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Sunderland has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 11 of the last 18 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 36 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 22 times and have only turned the score around in 4.

Sunderland enters this round demoralized following a home defeat, losing 0-1 against Leicester. In contrast to their opponent in this match, the visiting team is likely to operate in a 5-2-3 formation, aiming to capitalize on counterattacks. Nevertheless, Sunderland is expected to adopt a more defensive posture, considering they have a less complete squad. Sunderland's coach is likely to deploy three players in the forward line: Jobe Bellingham, Luís Semedo, and Chris Rigg. It's worth noting that coach Mike Dodds may not have Bradley Dack, Corry Evans, Niall Huggins, and Dennis Cirkin available as they are currently undergoing medical treatment.

Confirmed Lineup: Anthony Patterson, Daniel George Ballard, Trai Hume, Leo Hjelde , Jenson Seelt, Dan Neil, Chris Rigg, Jobe Bellingham, Abdoullah Ba, Romaine Mundle , Mason Burstow.
Coach: A. Neil.
