Southampton Did The Double Over Chelsea Last Time They Met

Despite being relegated to the Championship, Southampton actually won both games against Chelsea in 2022/23.

Young midfielder Romeo Lavia scored against his future club as the Saints won 2-1 at home.

And then a James Ward-Prowse free-kick saw Southampton win 1-0 at Stamford Bridge in the return fixture.

Enzo Maresca Has Perfect Record Against Southampton

Former Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca has won both of his previous two meetings with Southampton.

The Chelsea boss guided the Foxes to home and away wins against the Saints in the Championship last season.

Leicester beat Southampton 4-1 at St. Mary’s before a 5-0 thumping on home soil.

Saints Have Not Picked Up A Point Without Dibling Or Lallana

Southampton have relied heavily on the talents of young starlet Tyler Dibling and veteran midfielder Adam Lallana.

Academy product Dibling and returning former captain Lallana have been involved in almost everything positive for the Saints in an otherwise dismal campaign.

But with neither available against Chelsea, Russell Martin’s side will probably struggle.

All five of Southampton’s points this season have come with one or both of Lallana and Dibling starting.
