Crystal Palace to win, BTTS and Eberechi Eze anytime goalscorer (6/1 with Bet365)
Eberechi Eze has scored three career goals against Southampton, only scoring more against Wolves, Aston Villa (both 4) and Sheffield United (5). Two of those goals came in the last meeting between these sides in April 2023, sealing a 2-0 win for Palace. Palace have lost just one of their last eight Premier League matches, winning four of them. However, they’ve kept just two clean sheets during that time. Despite their struggles, Southampton have managed to at least score against the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Brighton since the end of November.
