Arsenal FC vs Southampton FC
English Premier League
Week #4 .. Saturday, 15-Sep-'12
Emirates Stadium @ 14:00 (GMT)
The Gunners began the first 2 weeks of the 2012-13 campaign with disappointing goal-less draws against Sunderland and Stoke City respectively, but they managed to gain their first goals and 3 points in week #3 away against Liverpool. This gives Arsene's men the momentum to go and demolish every opponent that'll face them (Arsenal), but, let's not forget that beating this Liverpool side at Anfield isn't THAT BIG OF AN ACCOMPLISHMENT because this is Liverpool's worst start since the 1962-63 season.
Okay, let's concentrate on this week's game! Southampton made life a living hell for both Manchester sides in week #1 and week #3, Southampton were on the verge of upsetting the EPL champions Man. City in week #1; but Nasri and co. didn't want to see that happen. Also, in week #3 Man. United were 3 minutes away to lose to the new comers. My point is that Wenger mustn't underestimate Southampton, this team is physical and knows how/when to score.
Giroud will try and score this week, but, in my opinion, he won't; the reason is that he'll have his mind set on Tuesday's clash against his former club (Montpellier). Cazorla and Podolski are lethal and can create a scoring chance any time during the game!
Prediction... Arsenal will face a lot of problems, but my feeling tells me Wenger won't let it slip that easy.
Arsenal FC 2-1 Southampton FC
