Goal Statistics

Southampton have been steady in attack of late, scoring in 15 consecutive Championship matches. Their PG of 1.5 against Ipswich Town on Tuesday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

Southampton's defensive record is to be admired, W. Still's men having conceded 1 or less in 9 consecutive Championship matches. An average PG rating of 1.2 for Ipswich Town makes sense in this context.
