Competition: Championship

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 8/11 @ Pribet

Two camps who made their respective Championship returns this season, Southampton will welcome Leicester to St. Mary’s on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Southampton are still waiting to appoint a permanent replacement for Will Still, the Saints have only continued to shine since they sacked the former Reims boss earlier in the month. Despite opening up the 2025/26 campaign in the midst of a public nightmare, they are suddenly enjoying what has become a real purple patch. Last seen over the weekend marking their return from November’s international break with a sensational 5-1 romp away at Charlton, Southampton will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. With the mood around St. Mary’s now at a season-high, Tuesday’s hosts have come skyrocketing away from the drop zone and now sit within touching distance of finding a route into the top-half of the table. Heading into November’s fortnight interval with a 3-1 victory at home against leading relegation candidates Sheffield Wednesday, the Saints have now won all of their previous three consecutive Championship appearances by an aggregate score of 10-3. However, despite finding a real clinical edge in the final third, it should be highlighted that Southampton have recorded just a single clean sheet across any competition since the middle of September.

As for the visitors, also losing their Premier League status with a whimper last season, Leicester find themselves in an almost identical position to Tuesday’s opponents. Coming under a huge amount of scrutiny since opening up the 2025/26 campaign, the Foxes almost find themselves sat in Championship limbo. However, marking their return from November’s international break with a 2-1 victory at home against Stoke, Marti Cifuentes’ men have secured consecutive Championship wins for the first time since the end of August. Heading into November’s fortnight interval with another 2-1 win against Norwich, Leicester will be desperate to claim a heavyweight scalp here. However, much like Southampton, the former QPR boss has made it clear that defensive stability is a priority going forward. In fact, Tuesday’s guests have failed to register a single clean sheet from any of their last 10 straight appearances across all competitions – a run that stems all the way back to September 20th. It should also be highlighted, the Foxes have seen five of their last six showdowns away from the King Power finish with both teams finding the net.

Bet: Both teams to score at Southampton vs Leicester City 8/11 for Tuesday’s Championship showdown @ Pribet
