Match Facts
Southampton have won just three of their last 13 league games against Sunderland (D6 L4), though one of those wins came as an 8-0 success at St. Mary’s Stadium in October 2014 – one of only five matches in which the Saints have scored 8+ goals across their league history.
Sunderland have won just five of their 28 away league games against Southampton (D7 L16), with three of the last four such meetings between the pair finishing 1-1.
Southampton have lost just one of their 11 home games played on a Saturday this season (W8 D2), winning six in a row before losing 2-1 to Millwall in their most recent such game last month.
Sunderland are winless across their last six away league games (D2 L4), losing the last three; the Black Cats last lost four in a row on the road in December 2019 in League One.
Since the beginning of last season Sunderland have lost four of their five league games that Jack Clarke has failed to start in (W1), scoring just four goals across those five matches.
