Southampton had a losing record last season and is struggling again. They've lost their first two games to start the Premier League, getting outscored 6-2. They have lost three in a row overall (by an 8-2 count), including a 1-0 loss at Crystal Palace in their last road contest. Burnley comes off a winning campaign, finishing #10 in the 20-team English Premier League last season, anchored by the ninth-ranked defense. They have home field here and are looking for their first victory after opening the season with a loss to Leicester City, a Top 5 squad last season. Burnley is on a 5-2-4 run at home, scoring at least one goal in every game but one. Burnley is also 4-0-3 in the last seven meetings versus Southampton, including victories of 2-1 and 3-0 in the last two encounters. Back Burnley on the moneyline.
