Southampton vs. Everton: Current situation
The best thing that can happen to a team after a disappointing relegation to the Championship is to be back in the elite right away, but many Southampton fans may already regret that. “The Saints” are simply not ready for this level and as season progresses, it seems like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Still, it is too early to call out Southampton as they can turn things around with only a couple of wins but as usual, that is much easier to be said than done.
Everton was in a similar situation after a couple of games into the season, but they managed to step up and that launched them higher in the standings. “The Toffees” are now undefeated in five consecutive games and this is definitely a chance for them to stretch that streak to six. Everton has shown that they are capable to dominate the possession and that seems like the right recipe for this visit.
Southampton Stats & Form
Southampton is at the rock bottom of the Premier League with only one point in nine games so far in the season. Even winning that point is seen as a failure, as they played only 1-1 against Ipswich, another team that will be drowning in the relegation zone. Southampton managed to end the losing streak with a 3-2 win in the EFL Cup against Stoke, but the Premier League is a completely different level.
Everton Stats & Form
Everton had a difficult start to the season, but the team from Liverpool learned the lesson and is playing much better in the past month. Not losing a single game in the last five looks very promising for the “Toffees,” who are currently in 16th place, being five points above the relegation zone. Everton scores more than one goal on average on the road, a number that can go up in this game.
Southampton – Everton: Head to Head
Both Southampton and Everton have won 4 of the last 10 head-to-head games with two draws. The last time they met was in the round of 32 of the EFL Cup just over a month ago, when Everton won on penalties. The last time they played in the 2022–23 Premier League season, both games ended with a 2-1 win for the visitors. In 4 of the last 5 games between these two teams, both of them scored.
Southampton – Everton Odds
Given the odds at 22bet, both teams have similar chances of winning with Southampton at 2.58 and Everton at 2.61, while the draw is at 3.54. The total goal line is set at 2.5 with 1.81 for over and 2.00 for under.

Betting tip and prediction: Southampton - Everton (02.11.2024)
After 12 seasons in the Premier League, Southampton found themselves in the Championship last year. Bouncing back quickly was the right response for the club with a long tradition, but based on what we saw in the first two and a half months of the season, it does not look promising at all for “the Saints.” Winning only one point in nine games is the recipe for disaster in the Premier League, and this is the game in which Southampton fans’ are hoping to see signs of life in their club. This weekend, Everton is coming to St. Mary’s Stadium, and they also see this game as a chance to get some wind in their backs. Everton is one of only six teams in Premier League history to never be relegated since the foundation, but last season, they barely survived. That saved Sean Dyche’s job on the “Toffees” sideline, and the team has played quite solidly in recent weeks after a difficult start of the season. Everton has been undefeated in the last five games, which has seen them bounce off the relegation zone. This is another opportunity for the “Toffees,” who will be without midfielders James Garner and Tim Iroegbunam in this game. Southampton will also miss a couple of players, as striker Ross Stewart and midfielder William Smallbone are out. Even though it is too early in the season, this game will either change the direction for Southampton and give them some boost or will push them even deeper at the bottom of the league. The stakes are high for them, and they will lack no motive, but “the Saints” are simply not on the Premier League level this year, and Everton will take advantage of that.
