Southampton vs Brighton – Fixture History

Southampton continue to flounder

The mood around Southampton is pretty low right now as a win has proven hard to come by in recent weeks. The Saints hope for some consistency after seeing a bit of everything in their last three matches. A meeting with Sheffield Wednesday resulted in a 1-1 draw, followed by a 3-1 defeat against Liverpool, before beating Lincoln City by 2-1.

Brighton continue to look blunt

Brighton will enter the match hoping to see the back of some rather disappointing results in recent matches. In their previous three matches, the Seagulls beat Arsenal 1-3, lost 1-2 against Aston Villa and drew 0-0 with Charlton.
