Southampton vs Crystal Palace: betting odds 2 Apr 2025

The Matchday 30 clash in the Premier League between Southampton and Crystal Palace will take place on April 2 at St. Mary's Stadium. Southampton vs. Crystal Palace: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Southampton

Ivan Juric's side, before the league went on a brief break, suffered a 1-2 defeat at home to Wolverhampton. This marked their fifth consecutive loss in the Premier League, with a goal difference of 3:16 in these games. The club remains at the bottom of the table and is already 17 points adrift of the safe 17th spot, currently occupied by Wolverhampton. It is also worth noting that Southampton has the worst defense in the Premier League, having conceded 70 goals.

  • At least three goals have been scored in the club's last 11 league matches.
  • Southampton has lost 11 of their last 12 Premier League games.
  • Both teams have scored in 7 of the club's last 9 Premier League matches.

Predicted lineup for Southampton (3-4-3)

Aaron Ramsdale – Armel Bella-Kotchap, Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Kyle Walker-Peters – Lesley Ugochukwu, Yukinari Sugawara, Joe Aribo, Ryan Manning – Kamaldeen Sulemana, Mateusz Fernandes, Tyler Dibling.

Crystal Palace

The Londoners played their last league game on March 8, where they defeated Ipswich 1-0 at home. Following this, the club also thrashed Fulham in the FA Cup quarter-finals on their ground (3-0). Crystal Palace enters this round with a three-match winning streak in the Premier League, a feat they haven't achieved since May last year. Oliver Glasner's side is in 12th place in the standings, 8 points behind the European competition zone, but they have a game in hand.

  • The Londoners are unbeaten in 9 of their last 11 Premier League matches (7 wins and 2 draws).
  • No more than three goals have been scored in 10 of Crystal Palace's last 11 league games.
  • Exactly two or three goals have been scored in 8 of the club's last 10 Premier League matches.

Predicted lineup for Crystal Palace (3-4-2-1)

Dean Henderson – Chris Richards, Maxence Lacroix, Marc Guehi – Daniel Munoz, Will Hughes, Eberechi Eze, Tyrick Mitchell – Ismaila Sarr, Adam Wharton – Jean-Philippe Mateta.

Midfielder Will Hughes is out due to suspension.

Match Prediction: Southampton vs. Crystal Palace

In the next two or three rounds, Ivan Juric's side will officially be relegated to the Championship. The players and fans of the club already understand that Southampton simply wasn't prepared for the Premier League. Throughout the season, the team has only secured two victories in the league, with just three draws. The club lacks a serious striker who could capitalize on small chances. In the current Premier League season, Southampton not only concedes the most goals but also has the weakest attacking line.

The Londoners should have no trouble dealing with such a disorganized opponent. The team is in good form and, with some luck, could even finish the season in the European competition zone. The club also maintains a chance to win the FA Cup, having reached the semi-finals of the tournament. Additionally, Crystal Palace has won their last four head-to-head Premier League matches.

My prediction: Crystal Palace to win

Betting tips 2 Apr 2025

Southampton’s relegation seems inevitable at this point. While the club may not have formally accepted it, the signs are glaring — and Crystal Palace look poised to capitalise with another three points in their European push.

Among this season’s promoted sides, Southampton have been the least competitive. All three are staring at a quick return to the Championship, but they can’t even keep pace with their fellow strugglers — they sit eight points adrift at the bottom. Their downfall has been a porous defence: 70 goals conceded, averaging 2.4 per match. In four of their last five league games, Southampton have shipped more than two. Only fellow relegation candidate Wolverhampton managed to keep the score respectable (2:1). In fact, only Wolverhampton have failed to beat Southampton by more than a single goal during that stretch.

Crystal Palace, on the other hand, are hitting their stride. They have cleared the -1.5 handicap in four of their last five matches in all competitions. The only exception was a narrow 1:0 win over Ipswich Town, where goalkeeper Alex Palmer pulled off a string of saves despite Crystal Palace creating 3.26 xG. In their other recent fixtures, they’ve been clinical — netting at least twice per game. Fulham were brushed aside twice, 2:0 in the league and 3:0 in the FA Cup, both away from home.

If Crystal Palace can make light work of a top-four hopeful like Fulham, what chance do the league’s bottom-dwellers have? Southampton’s brittle backline will likely fold again, and with little to play for, expect lapses that lead to avoidable goals.
