Southampton vs Arsenal prediction and betting tips on May 25 2025
Game Prediction
In the 38th round of the English Premier League on May 25, 2025, Southampton and Arsenal will face off. On the field of the main outsider, Mikel Arteta’s men are expected to win comfortably without breaking a sweat.
Our Prediction for Southampton vs Arsenal
The club from St. Mary's was already relegated to the Championship in 2023. They managed to return immediately, but collected fewer points than Ipswich and had to make their way through the play-offs to get promoted back to the Premier League. The capital giants returned to the Champions League, won their group, but were knocked out in the playoffs by Bayern. Domestically, they fought for the title with Manchester City until the very end, but after falling behind by a couple of points, still finished second.
Not much has changed since then. With one caveat: this time the Spaniard’s team had no real chances to compete with Liverpool, and in the second half of the season they gradually stopped trying and focused on the Champions League. There, they got past Real Madrid but lost to PSG in the semifinals. They were also eliminated from the League Cup at a similar stage. In the Premier League, their second place was at risk in May, but they managed a timely 1-0 win over Newcastle. The home side achieved one thing: they avoided becoming the worst Premier League team in history. However, their overall record is poor. They even lost 0-2 to Everton.
The outsider scores less than 0.68 goals per game, while conceding much more – 2.27. Saka and company average 1.81 goals per game, conceding half as many – 0.89.
