Competition: Premier League
Market: Southampton to finish top-four
Odds: 7/4 @ Betfair
Southampton have been in incredible form of late, coming off the back of an historic win against Manchester United at Old Trafford. It capped a brilliant run of results against sides they were expected to lose against. The South Coast outfit beat Everton, Arsenal and Manchester United recently, while earning a draw against Premier League leaders Chelsea.
Such form has put the Saints into third place in the table after 21 games, and manager Ronald Koeman says his side are starting to believe in their chances of finishing in a Champions League position. There’s still plenty of the campaign remaining for things to change, but Southampton’s form so far suggests that will not happen.
They are bracing themselves for the challenge of Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal as the three biggest threats to their top-four hopes, but have bested them this far, and boast a squad nearly fully fit, while having the January window to bolster any position they are weak in. And as a result, Betfair are giving odds of 7/4 for Southampton to finish in the top-four come May.
