West Ham United hosts Southampton in round 28 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, February 29th at Olympic Stadium (London)
In the last round, West Ham played two-thirds of the match against leading Liverpool on an equal footing. And it even was ahead with a 1-2 score. However, the class of the current winner of the Champions League was evident. Liverpool leveled the score and scored a winning goal at the end of the match. And that loss dropped the Hammers into the relegation zone. Now they are one point behind 17th Aston Villa and lead a trio of outsiders.

So far, Southampton looks more confident against the backdrop of West Ham. The Saints take the 12th place in the standings. And in the last round, they managed to wrestle three points away from Aston Villa. In general, it was Southampton’s second victory in five last matches. Three of them were lost.
I won’t look for a winner in the upcoming match, although the visitors here look much more preferable. But given the goal difference and some other attendant factors in terms of scoring, we can expect a goal match. West Ham scored 32 goals and conceded 48 goals. The difference of Southampton is 34-38 after 27 championship matches. West Ham played with Over 2.5 goals scored in three out of its five last matches. Southampton did the same in four of the last six games. And the last seven head-to-head matches in London ended with Over 2.5 goals scored. It is difficult to predict how the opponents will share points among themselves. But they will probably score goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
