  • Competition: England - Premier League
  • Date: Saturday, 3rd, May 2025
  • Kickoff: 15:00 UK / 16.00 CEST
  • Venue: King Power Stadium (Leicester)

Two already-relegated sides will go head-to-head at the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon as Leicester City host Southampton on Premier League matchday 35.

Although there are still four matchdays left to play, the relegation picture is already crystal clear with Leicester among the sides heading back to the Championship just a year after promotion, while club legend Jamie Vardy has confirmed he will part ways with King Power after a remarkable 13-year spell.

Having long since cemented their relegation from the Premier League and earned a reputation as one of the competition’s weakest-ever sides, Southampton will now look to salvage a shred of pride by avoiding the ignominy of replacing Derby County’s infamous 11-point haul from the 2007–08 campaign.

Leicester City vs Southampton Betting Tips : BTTS

Both teams are caught in the grip of a lengthy winless drought, but with Saturday’s showdown shaping up as a level playing field between two evenly-matched outfits, we believe BTTS could land in what has the potential to be an entertaining clash of fallen contenders. King Power faithful have been left disillusioned by their side’s horror run, with the Foxes not only suffering seven straight home defeats in 2025 but also failing to ripple the net in any of them, yet Saturday’s visit from the basement dwellers offers a great opportunity to put an end to their miserable goal-scoring drought. From Southampton's perspective, they’ve been far more prolific in the final third compared to Leicester, scoring in all but one of their last eight away trips, but their defense remains a major weakness and the main culprit behind their early exit, as they conceded a staggering 80 goals in 34 gameweeks. In the first meeting of the season, Leicester were victorious in a dramatic five-goal contest (3-2), and we feel that another goal fest between the two already relegated Premier League sides could be played out on Saturday, as both are desperate for a long-awaited win.

Leicester City team news

Despite being neither injured nor suspended, Harry Winks will not feature in the remaining four Premier League matches of the season due to a heated argument with manager Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Mads Hermansen's season has come to a premature end after he required surgery, meaning Polish goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk will take over between the posts for the remainder of the season.

Southampton team news

On Southampton's list of absentees are Charlie Taylor, Albert Gronbaek, and Ryan Fraser, while Paul Onuachu's status will be evaluated after he missed last week's match due to an ankle injury.

Despite the disappointment of seeing his team squander a first-half lead in last week's 2-1 loss to Fulham, interim manager Simon Rusk may opt to field the same starting XI again.
