Southampton will be aiming to bounce back from back-to-back defeats to Bristol City and Blackburn when they host Preston in Saturday’s Championship clash. The Saints possess plenty of quality in their ranks, but they are still searching for form early in the campaign. Wellington is banned for the match, while both Emil Holm Jelert and Ross Stewart remain in the recovery room. Southampton are desperate to return to winning ways and the upcoming game could be the perfect opportunity to do so.
The Lilywhites, on the other hand, impressed in a 3-2 win over Sheffield United, but facing the Saints on the road is a completely different challenge. Given that Preston have lost four of their last five encounters with Southampton, home win should be considered. The visitors also have a lengthy injury list ahead of the trip to St. Mary’s Stadium, which is yet another reason why we are going to bet on the hosts.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 1 November 2025 at 15:00.
