Our free expert picks: Saints to dominate in 3-0 win

Hot tip – Southampton to Win and Over 1.5 Goals
- Southampton have won nine of their last ten Championship games at home.
- Ten of the Saints’ last 12 home assignments have featured over 1.5 goals.
Other tips
Southampton 3-0 Millwall
- Southampton scored at least three times in four of their last six tussles at home.
- Millwall failed to register in three of their last four Championship fixtures.
Both Teams Not to Score
- Millwall notched just once in their last four league matches.
- Millwall failed to score when they lost to Southampton in November.
Player to watch – Adam Armstrong
Adam Armstrong never truly found his best form in the Premier League, though the attacker has been a hugely influential force in the Championship this term, scoring 16 goals and creating 11 more for Southampton so far.
Armstrong could make the difference again
Adam Armstrong’s haul of just one goal from his last five appearances is a bit of a dry spell by his own lofty standards, however, the 27-year-old should have chances to boost his tally against a vulnerable-looking Millwall outfit.
