class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Saints are one of the most in-form Premier League teams and our tipster is backing them to see off the struggling Gunners on Wednesday evening
Arsenal could be in for another testing evening when they host high-flying Southampton in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.
The Gunners put in yet another toothless display in Sunday’s 1-0 defeat at home to Burnley, extending their winless run to five games and making it four home losses in a row.
Southampton, meanwhile, eased past Sheffield United 3-0 to move into the top-four and sit only two points behind leaders Tottenham.

Despite their ongoing struggles, bet365 make Arsenal 11/10 (2.10) favourites to come out on top at the Emirates Stadium for the first time since October 4.
Southampton have only won one of the last Premier League renewals between these sides and are 12/5 (3.40) outsiders to win for the eighth time this season.
The teams drew 2-2 when they faced off in this stadium last November and it is 5/2 (3.50) that they share the points once again.

Will Smallbone is the only absentee for Ralph Hasenhuttl, who may opt to start Nathan Redmond following his strike off the bench against Sheffield United on Sunday.
Arsenal vs Southampton Preview
Sunday’s defeat against Burnley was just another in a long line of inadequate performances by Arsenal, who have now lost six of their last eight Premier League games and managed just two goals in that time.
There is little to suggest they will be able to turn that around against a Southampton team enjoying one of their best seasons of all time, sitting in the top-four with seven wins in their last 10 games.
As well as having the third-best attack in the league with 24 goals to their name, the Saints have kept five clean sheets this term and shipped just 11 goals in their last 10 games – the fourth-fewest in that time.
Arsenal vs Southampton Tips and Predictions
Although Arsenal do have the talent and ability to play infinitely better than their current form suggests, they simply cannot be trusted to win right now and bet365’s 12/5 (3.40) on Southampton winning this fixture is far too good to miss.
