I reckon the ball might have bobbled on that (see image)! These days Southampton play in your bog standard 30,000 seater steel and concrete. And Saints fans should be buzzing after two consecutive Premier League wins for the first time since April 2017. Under new manager (insert Germanic name here), the Model predicts the Saints revival to continue, with a 2-1 (8%) win at home to West Ham.
Attack! Attack! Attack! Man U scored 5 at the weekend. Ole Gunnar has a relatively nice run of games to get his loan spell as manager of the Red Devils started. The Model forecasts a comfortable 2-0 (18%) home win against Huddersfield.
The table below gives the rest of the Model’s forecasts for Round 19 of the Premier League:

  • The Forecast scoreline, with the % chance of that happening
  • The % chance of a win by the Home team, P(H), or Away team, P(A) (with one hundred minus those two numbers giving the % chance of a draw
