Southampton have had a rough couple matches and have sputtered at 7 points thus far this season and are now 17th on the table.

The Saints have had a tough slate of matches recently and it does not end until they go to the Emirates and take on Arsenal on the 23rd of November.

Points will be tough to come, but they will have to get them somewhere if they hope to stay out of a relegation scrap again. So, with that said let us take a look at the next 7 league matches for the Saints and where they could collect some points.

Wolves vs Southampton

Coming off of the international break, the Saints will travel to the Molineux to take on Wolverhampton, who have had an interesting start to their 19/20 Premier League campaign. They currently have a record of 2-4-2 and sit middle of the table after collecting a fine win against Manchester City just before the break.

But before that, they had really struggled with the balancing of the Europa League and Premier League but have seem to have found their sea legs and are getting a hold of things. This will make them especially dangerous in this match because they are at home, coming off a break and play a Southampton team they believe they should beat with some ease.

That could also benefit the Saints if the host overlook their opponents. We all know Ralph has been busy over the break and will look to come out with a strong performance that gets the confidence back up. Ultimately, I do see this match as a chance to grab a point for the Saints. They could take all three but my money would be on a draw.
