Simon Winter
EVENT ENDED!

OddsDigger’s Tip:

All eyes will be on St. Mary’s on Wednesday night as one of the favourites for promotion from the Championship this season travels south to take on a Premier League regular in the second round of the EFL Cup. Our Southampton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers preview features a duo of teams fresh from differing fortunes and results at the weekend. This top football odds we chose for the mid-week duel were taken from Betway, who have unrivalled prices and offers for the game.

Match Preview

The Saints were involved in one of the weekend’s most exciting battles ahead of our Southampton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers betting tips. An injury time penalty winner from Charlie Austin secured the first three points of the new season for the home side in a 3-2 win over West Ham. Wednesday’s clash is Southampton’s third home match in succession. They drew 0-0 against Swansea City in their first foray of the 2017/18 campaign.

With relatively new owners and a raft of exciting high profile summer signings, the away side are getting plenty of coverage ahead of today’s Southampton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers predictions. So far, they have largely lived up to the hype around them, winning their first four matches on the trot, though Saturday’s 1-2 reverse at home to Cardiff City was an unexpected bump in the road.

Wolves’ first three victories this season came with three clean sheets, though they haven’t managed to keep the opposition out in their last two. The last time these teams met in any competition was all the way back in the 2008/09 season, and though the results that year hold little relevance today, it was Wolves who won both meetings.

Southampton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction and Betting Advice

Southampton to win @ 4/7 Betway

A home win is the first choice for this week’s Southampton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers picks. With the away side likely to treat the EFL Cup as a competition of little importance, they leave the door ajar for the Saints to take advantage. The home side will be looking to follow up their first win of the season with another victory, adding to the momentum of their triumph over West Ham. Backing the first of today’s football tips @ 4/7 with Betway is an excellent offer from the best bookmaker around for this fixture.

Both teams to score @ 19/20 Betway

The visitors to St. Mary’s have scored in all five of their matches so far this campaign across two competitions. The hosts looked much more threatening in the final third on Saturday against the Hammers than they did in their dour draw against Swansea. The teams‘ respective goal getting ability means that taking 19/20 with Betway for both teams to score makes perfect sense.
