Saints have generally given us tough games at the Bridge, and we have rarely beaten them comfortably at home in my memory. Generally we seem to have done better at St. Mary's. Then again this season we produced one of our worst performances of the season when we lost there. So hopefully tomorrow we can make up for that result and beat them by a few goals. I'll take any win for us at the moment though.

Oh and last year @Valeriewas our grand champion.

Val can you show what Zeta got for you ad the Champ, and what something similar these lovely people what they could win please?

A few perfect predictions and you xlild be top of the league. Not too late to join folks 🙂

Happy to oblige @axman2526

Still really chuffed! I drink from the pint glass everyday, wash it by hand, and panic at thought of dropping it. @Zeta knows his stuff 

Didn't follow Southampton that much this season, nor I was aware of the permutations at the bottom of the table, but Southampton are just crap this season, aren't they?! Bottom of the league, 8 scored away from home and now have this unknown Spanish assistant coach turned manager to get them out of trouble.

Well, considering all this, I expect Southampton to come at the Bridge and get the three points comfortably and then get absolutely smashed by Leeds, Leicester and United in the next three rounds.

Banter aside though, if we can't beat the bottom of the table at home, serious questions must be raised. I get it, it's the long term projects, but you can't build on something getting one win every ten games and getting knocked out of every competition you are in.

Match Day!
 

Come On Chelsea!!

Ladies and gentlemen. It is matchday!

I am hoping for a goal scored by Chelsea. Dreaming of two. Not much to ask.

Match day,and hopefully the day we click and score a few,fingers crossed .....UP THE CHELS !

Shock! A 3pm kick-off on a Saturday. Ah well, more drinking time in the pub afterwards. Celebrating a win and lots of goals. Please!!!

Rumours there's a virus going round and several players are out. 

Hopefully the start of the road to recovery today. Good luck Graham and team !

I do well betting any other team but Chelsea!

Claude Makélélé turns 50 today, he'll bring us luck I believe.

Not that interested in the expected lineup. More concerned with who the VAR assistant is. 

Andrey is going to watch the match today!

I believe we need an expert analysis on this. @Munkworthyour thoughts on Southampton? 

Interesting line up.

Can't argue with that line up. Havertz getting a well deserved rest.

When was Southampton has lost their last three league games ………just saying…. We are Charity FC whenever a team needs it.

I’m sure Soton will have some sort of response with their manager gone. 

Nice, other than Chilwell starting (assumed he wouldn't be fit enough to start twice in a week) instead of Hall, that is exactly the lineup I scribbled down this morning.

Could this finally be the day when our results start to turn around?
