Match Facts
Stoke have won their last two league games against Southampton (1-0 in April 2024 and 2-1 in August 2025), and could win three in a row against the Saints for the first time ever.
Southampton could lose home and away against Stoke in a league campaign for the first time since the 1967-68 campaign, in the English top-flight.
Stoke are winless in their last four Championship home games (D2 L2), and last went five in a row without a home victory on Boxing Day 2024 (5 – D3 L2).
Southampton won their first two away league matches under Tonda Eckert (v QPR and Charlton), but have since failed to win any of their last six on the road (D2 L4).
Sorba Thomas has been directly involved in 44% of Stoke’s goals in the Championship this season (15/34 – 9 goals, 6 assists); the highest percentage by a player for any team in 2025-26.
