Match Facts
Crystal Palace have won each of their last three Premier League games against Southampton, just one fewer than they had in their first 25 against them in the competition (W4 D7 L14).
Only against Aston Villa (7) have Southampton won more Premier League away games than against Crystal Palace (6), though they are winless in their last three visits to Selhurst Park (D1 L2).
Crystal Palace have lost just one of their last 13 Premier League home games against promoted sides (W7 D5), going down 3-0 against Fulham in December 2022.
Crystal Palace won their final league game in each of 2021, 2022 and 2023 – they last did so in four consecutive calendar years between 1960 and 1963.
When playing in the top-flight, Southampton haven’t won their final league game of a calendar year since 2002 (2-1 vs Sunderland), with Saints drawing six and losing seven since then. When playing their final league game of the year away from home (all divisions), Southampton haven’t won since 1975 against Oxford United (D6 L10 since).
Crystal Palace have only lost two of their last 18 Premier League home games against promoted clubs (W10 D6), going down 1-0 against Sheffield United in February 2020, and 3-0 against Fulham in December 2022.
Southampton are winless in their last 16 Premier League away games (D4 L12), scoring just one goal in their last five on the road. However, they’ve earned as many points from their last three top-flight away games as they had in their previous 13 (2).
Since their return to the Premier League in 2013, no side have had more goalless draws in the competition than Crystal Palace (36).
Southampton have just six points this season, and if they lose this game it will be the joint-second fewest (with Sunderland in 2005-06) earned at the midway point of a single Premier League campaign (only Sheffield United in 2020-21 earned fewer – 5).
No team has failed to score in more different Premier League games than Southampton this season (9), who have also scored fewer goals (11) and had fewer shots on target (54) than any other side.
