SOU vs CHE Dream 11 Prediction
Chelsea will be back in action later tonight as they take on Southampton at the St. Mary’s Stadium up next. Talking about the standings, Southampton have been struggling to find any sort of momentum and are on the back of five consecutive defeats in the league. The Saints had kicked off the new season in grand manner but have met a few road blocks lately, and will have to get back to their absolute best in order to have any claim of making it to Europe this season. Meanwhile, Chelsea have been going through a good time under recently appointed manager Thomas Tuchel. Tuchel’s Chelsea unit have gone on to win four games on the bounce in the league and are now playing with much more control and conviction. That being said, the Saints will have yet another stern test ahead considering the Blues terrific run of form. With that being said, here is the SOU vs CHE Dream 11 Prediction for the upcoming fixture.
