Stat attack

  • Stoke City have only won three of their last 15 home matches against Southampton in all competitions (D5 L7).
  • Saints failed to score against Stoke in the Premier League last season, despite having 10 shots on target against them over the two games. Only one team had more shots on target without scoring against an opponent last season (Hull against Sunderland - 13).
  •  10 of Southampton’s 11 Premier League goals against Stoke have been scored in the first half – and none have come later than the 57th minute. All seven goals by Southampton scored at the bet365 Stadium have been scored in the first half.
  • Southampton have failed to score in 10 of their last 14 Premier League matches and have scored just eight goals from 180 shots in these games (4.4%).
  • Southampton are on a four-game unbeaten away run in the Premier League (W2 D2 L0) – their longest run on the road since November 2015 (six games).
  •  Stoke have lost nine of their last 16 Premier League games, three times as many games as they have won in this period (W3 D4 L9).
  •  Southampton have kept a clean sheet in their opening two league games away from home in 2017-18. They’ve never kept clean sheets in their opening three away games of any of their previous 90 seasons in the Football League.
  • 35.3% of Stoke City’s passes have ended in the final third of the pitch this season in the Premier League; a higher proportion that any other side.
  •  Manolo Gabbiadini scored four goals in his first three Premier League appearances, averaging a goal every 62 minutes & converting 25% of shots. In his 14 Premier League appearances since then, he’s scored just once from 21 shots (4.8%) and averaged a goal every 790 minutes.
  •  Since Mark Hughes took charge of Stoke at the start of the 2013/14 season, no Premier League side has lost more home games by 4+ goals than the Potters (3, level with Swansea and West Ham), with Stoke losing 4-0 to Chelsea at the bet365 Stadium last time out.
