Did you know?

After drawing their first ever Premier League away match 3-3 at West Ham in May 1994, none of Southampton’s last 18 visits to the Hammers in the competition has finished level. Saints have won just four of these 18 matches (L14), losing the last four in a row and conceding three goals each time.

West Ham have won more matches (19) and more home fixtures (14) against Southampton in the Premier League than they have versus any other side in the competition.

David Moyes has suffered defeats in just two of his 17 Premier League meetings with Southampton (W7 D8), losing 1-0 with Everton in September 2002 and 4-0 with Sunderland in February 2017.

Armando Broja has scored four goals in six Premier League starts, making him Southampton’s top league goal scorer this season. All four of the Albanian’s goals have given Saints the lead, and have been worth five points overall.
