Southampton has the worst goal balance in the Premier League, together with Watford. The Saints are two places above Watford and Southampton have so far only eight points in the Premier League. The absolute low point took place last Friday when Southampton lost 0-9 to Leicester City in-house. In defense of Southampton, it can be said that The Saints played more than eighty minutes with ten men due to a stupid red card from Ryan Bertrand, but then a club like Southampton should not lose 0-9 to Leicester City. Saturday afternoon, The Saints will undoubtedly have to collect some goals again at Etihad Stadium.

Free soccer picks
The English papers wrote the result of Southampton's capitulation to Leicester rather in the wording next to it. After all, this 0: 9 was the highest away victory of a team in English football. Not only in the Premier League, which has been in existence since 1992, but since the founding of the Football League, the world's first football league in 1888. 131 years later, the Saints suffered such an attrition against the club, fans, coaches and players to have to nibble long.

In response to the debacle against Leicester City, players donated their salary from that day to the club's foundation. Coach Ralph Hasenhüttl took the responsibility for the "non-performance" to one hundred percent directly after the game in which the Saints at the break already with 0: 5 lagged. Hasenhüttl still has some credit due to the good performances in the preseason, but it could be used up faster than the Austrian likes.

Hasenhüttl and team have to deliver at the latest in the home games against Everton, Norwich and Watford. The only two victories this season celebrated the Saints in the distance at Brighton and Sheffield.
However, Southampton won 42 times in Premier League matches only twice away from a reigning champion (2-10-30). 1969/70 in Leeds (3: 1) and 2015/16 at Chelsea (3: 1). With Danny Ings, the Saints after all, the most successful scorer outside the top six clubs in games against the establishment in their own ranks.
