(Oct 26)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Man City will be the overwhelming favorites when they welcome Southampton to the Etihad in the Premier League<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reigning champions could move back to the top of the league standings with a third successive win. City build confidence last weekend with a hard-fought success on the road against Wolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been a miserable start to the season for Southampton on their return to the Premier League. Russell Martin\u2019s job already looks in question after failing to win in their opening eight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A glorious opportunity passed them by against Leicester at St Mary\u2019s last Saturday after throwing away a 2-0 advantage. An impossible challenge looks to be on the cards this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Odds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As expected, Man City will be the shortest price of any side in the Premier League this weekend on the moneyline. An away win for Southampton is available at a massive price of +2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since losing three straight matches against the Saints between 2001 and 2004, City have avoided defeat in the last 12. Over that period, the hosts have recorded ten home wins, with two ending in draws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southampton\u2019s overall record against City paints an even poorer picture for the visitors. The Saints have won just one of their last 14 Premier League meetings with City, with that success coming in the COVID-19-impacted season in 2019-20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
