Southampton v West Brom Bet Builder, Tips and Predictions – EFL Championship

09 Dec – 19:45 | Venue: St Mary’s Stadium


Southampton v West Brom Preview

Southampton continued their impressive surge up the Championship table over the weekend as they secured a 3–1 home victory over Birmingham City, marking their fifth win in six league matches. Under permanent boss Tonda Eckert, The Saints look revitalised and confident, with recent victories against QPR (2-1), Sheffield Wednesday (3-1), Charlton (5-1), Leicester (3-0) and Birmingham putting them firmly back in the promotion conversation.

Their only recent setback was a narrow 3-2 loss at Millwall, but their response has been emphatic. St Mary’s has become a difficult venue once again, and Southampton’s blend of high work rate, intensity and creativity makes them heavy favourites heading into this midweek clash.

West Brom, meanwhile, continue to struggle for rhythm and consistency. A 3-1 defeat at QPR last time out leaves The Baggies hovering down in 16th place and with just two wins from their last nine Championship outings. More concerning is their away form—all four of their recent defeats during this period have come on the road, with Mason’s side repeatedly coming up short outside the Hawthorns.

Against an in-form Southampton side, and with key absences to contend with, West Brom look up against it on Tuesday night.

Southampton v West Brom Preview

Southampton claimed a fifth league win in six games in the Championship on the weekend when they registered a 3-1 home win against Birmingham City at St Mary’s Stadium, and the south coast club will be bidding to make it back-to-back wins against west midlands opposition when they play host to West Brom on Tuesday night.

Despite being dealt a 3-2 loss away from home at Millwall previously, The Saints have collected five important wins in recent weeks under the now permanent manager, Tonda Eckert, thanks to victories gained over QPR (2-1), Sheffield Wednesday (3-1), Charlton Athletic (5-1), Leicester City (3-0) and the aforementioned win against Birmingham City.

West Brom find themselves languishing in 16th place in the Championship table following a 3-1 loss away from home at QPR, and The Baggies will hit the road again on Tuesday night as they make for the south coast to take on a rejuvenated Southampton outfit.

Inconsistent results and performances have seen West Brom pick up just two wins in their last nine matches in the Championship along with being involved in two draws as well as slipping to four defeats, all of which have been incurred on their travels.

Team News and Predicted Line-Ups

Southampton

Southampton’s win over Birmingham came with a downside as Adam Armstrong was forced off with a knock. Eckert will assess him before kickoff. Armstrong has been sensational recently—joint-highest goal involvements in England’s top four tiers since early November (8: 5 goals, 3 assists). His absence would be significant.

Cameron Archer is expected to step in if Armstrong doesn’t make it.

The Saints remain without:

  • Ross Stewart (hamstring)

  • Elias Jelert (thigh)

  • Shea Charles (hamstring)

  • Mads Roerslev (knee)

  • Damion Downs (unspecified)

  • Welington (ankle)

Roerslev’s absence means Tom Fellows, formerly of West Brom, is expected to start.

West Brom

The Baggies cannot call upon Charlie Taylor, who is ineligible to face his parent club.
However, Nat Phillips returns from suspension and should partner Mepham at the back, freeing Bielik to move back into midfield if preferred.

Midfielder Toby Collyer has returned to Manchester United with a serious calf injury.

Predicted Line-Ups

Southampton possible XI:
Bazunu; Wood, Harwood-Bellis, Stephens; Fellows, Downes, Aribo, Manning; Scienza, Azaz; Archer

West Brom possible XI:
Wildsmith; Campbell, Mepham, Phillips, Styles; Molumby, Mowatt; Johnston, Grant, Iling-Junior; Heggebo

Southampton v West Brom Prediction

Southampton’s momentum, home form and attacking efficiency make them strong favourites here. West Brom’s defensive frailties—particularly away—should ensure goal-scoring opportunities for The Saints. With Southampton consistently hitting high goal numbers and West Brom capable of contributing, Over 2 Goals pairs well with the home win.

Conclusion

Southampton are one of the most in-form teams in the Championship, playing with intensity and confidence under Eckert. West Brom’s away form remains a major concern, and with the Baggies struggling to put together consistent performances, St Mary’s looks an extremely difficult venue for them to visit. A home win in a match with goals looks the most likely outcome.
