Proven soccer expert Martin Green has identified his best bets for the Chelsea vs. Southampton matchup below, and bettors who have followed his advice have cashed in huge. Green is a handicapper who has covered the game worldwide, and his European soccer picks have generated almost $35,000 for $100 bettors since the 2017-18 season.
Green knows the Blues are the superior team and will come out steaming after consecutive embarrassing losses. Off-field sanctions against owner Roman Ambramovich have thrown the squad into chaos, and it might have to fight just to stay in the top four. It is five points ahead of Tottenham and Arsenal. Chelsea still has a plus-35 goal differential and has allowed just 23, third-fewest in the league. Mason Mount (eight goals, seven assists) and Christian Pulisic (four goals) could trouble a Saints defense that has conceded 46 goals.Â
The expert also knows the Saints play very well at home and always give Chelsea fits. Only three of Southampton's 10 losses have come and home, and it is plus-6 in goal differential at St. Mary's. It is 1-2-1 in the past four league games with Chelsea and lost on penalties after a 1-1 draw in the last meeting, a League Cup fourth-round match in October. James Ward-Prowse is tremendous on set pieces and has seven goals and four assists, while Che Adams (seven goals, three assists) has the speed to menace the back line.
