Head-to-head statistics West Ham - Southampton
West Ham United Team Overview
⚒ West Ham have changed their manager mid-season. Under Graham Potter, they've secured just two victories, the last of which came back in February. Since then, the Hammers have gone five matches without a win. However, they've only lost by more than one goal on one occasion, largely due to a red card. Their recent clash with Liverpool at Anfield (1-2) was no exception. West Ham conceded early and only leveled the score through an own goal late in the game. Nonetheless, the Reds had enough time to snatch the victory. It's worth noting that the Londoners hit the crossbar twice and missed a one-on-one opportunity with the goalkeeper.
📣 Graham Potter described the defeat to Liverpool as painful and praised his players for their performance: “In terms of balance between defense and attack, this is probably our best performance since I arrived. We created chances, attacked, and didn't allow the opponent too many opportunities.”
❌ Michail Antonio is out for the rest of the season. Given his age, it's unlikely that West Ham will rely heavily on him in the future. Crysencio Summerville has been sidelined for three months due to injury, and Aaron Cresswell recently joined the injury list, missing the last two matches.

Southampton Team Overview
🌳 Southampton have gone nine matches without a win, including their FA Cup outings. During this stretch, they've managed only a single point, having let a victory slip in stoppage time against Crystal Palace (1-1). In the clash with Tottenham (1-3), the Saints saw their hopes of Premier League survival dashed. Consequently, Ivan Jurić was let go due to a lack of progress. In the last round, Simon Rusk stepped in as interim head coach, though it's clear Southampton are on the hunt for a new manager. Frank Lampard is among the candidates being considered. The team hosted Aston Villa and held their defense firm until the 73rd minute. However, they conceded three goals in the remaining time, despite Aaron Ramsdale's heroics in saving two penalties.
📣 Simon Rusk took charge as caretaker manager for the second time this season. After the match against Aston Villa, he shared his thoughts: “I am incredibly proud to lead the team, even under challenging circumstances. It's a big responsibility, but the players were fantastic and really receptive to everything. I will be honest with them and support them as much as I can.”
❌ In the upcoming fixture, Charlie Taylor, Ryan Fraser, Albert Gronbaek, and Juan Larios will be sidelined due to injuries. Additionally, Paul Onuachu had to be substituted in the last match, so he's unlikely to feature.
