Man City vs Southampton prediction

This could be a cricket score. The reigning champions against, arguably, the worst team in the league, anything less than a thumping win for City would be a disappointment.

Haaland will have no better opportunity to get back amongst the goals, and his supporting cast will likely feel the same.
