But this year the task is increasingly complicated to revalidate the title of national champion. Manchester City are very strong and regular and even United this year is a tough opponent, so Chelsea have struggled.

They have also lost points that last year did not lose. Two days ago they were beaten at West Ham by 1-0, which left the Italian coach furious and even threw the towel on the floor in relation to the title fight.

In the middle of the week the team redeemed themselves and went on to win at Huddersfield by 1-3 in a well-built win where Chelsea were better and where they had the chance to play at a pace that suited them more.

Southampton are a reasonable team from the Premier League but at the moment it is not in a very good phase. The team was even in the beginning of the championship, but then they lost some gas and in the last four days did not manage to win.

It is true that they were able to draw at home to Arsenal with 1 goal after 2 games, as they were literally humiliated by Leicester on the final day of the week and lost 1-4 in the reception to this team.

A very weak display smeared by some defensive errors that proved to be fatal in this Southampton side’s snub.

They have been making good championships, but this year they should stay for the second half of the league table, as the team does not have a padding to stay in the first half of the table
Prognosis Chelsea vs Southampton:

Prognosis:

Chelsea are clearly superior and I believe they will defeat this Southampton at home, especially on a major road, since we have a City vs Spurs and some of them will have to lose points and the national champions have to be on the lookout.

Chelsea did a bad game in West Ham, but last week they got a lot better and they won with merit. This meeting even gave to save some players like Hazard who ended up being replaced already thinking about these next commitments.

Chelsea have good defensive consistency and in the attack they have players like Morata, Hazard, William, Pedro and company that guarantees quality to the last stronghold of this London team.

I see Chelsea win and take advantage of the mistrust of the Southampton team, especially after the last midweek loss to Leicester.
