An interesting football match will be held on Saturday in England Premier League where Crystal Palace will be hosting Southampton. The most interesting fact in this game is that these are teams with the highest and lowest average total goals in current season. After 13 games of the season 16/17 average total goals of Crystal Palace equals to 3.62, while the corresponding metric for Southampton is just 1.92 goals. A very similar situation is on corners: Crystal Palace takes the lead in EPL with average total corners of 12.46, and Southampton takes penultimate line: 8.92 corners per match on average (stats data from corner-stats.com).

It seems the teams use radically different tactics, and judging by the results of the teams, Southampton is more successful in current season. This is confirmed by the bookmakers odds, which shows that the guests are the favorite in the match. The team of experts of Corner-stats.com believes that in the Saturday's match Crystal Palace will demonstrate a more cautious play. In the last 5 matches Crystal Palace lost 5 times, while conceding 17 goals! Especially revealing was the last match against Swansea, where the team scored 4 goals, but still lost (5-4). Maybe they should already stop to step on the same rake? If we talk about Southampton, little hard to believe that the team will rush forward in every way, especially given the fact of playing away. In 9 games at away this season Southampton scored just 6 goals (3 of them in a match against West Ham).

Based on this Corner-stats.com team believes that we are likely to see a cautious and not really attacking football, and advises to look closely at the bet of total corners under. If we analyze the statistics of the corners of Southampton at away, we get the average total of just 8.8 corners per match. From Crystal Palace certainly we can expect more corners, but, as has been noticed above, it is expected that the team will play more cautiously. And secondly, in the last two matches at home against strong teams there were quite small number of corners (2-7 in the match against Manchester City and 3-3 in the match against Liverpool).

Based on the performance of Crystal Palace, bookmakers set quite big total corners of 11 and we should take advantage of this. The recommended bet is total corners under 11 (1.80 at Bet365).
