Comments:

League position: 14th Southampton remained without a win in the Premier League since the visit of Liverpool to St Mary’s Stadium on 4 January 2021; longer than any other team currently in the division. The Saints remained without an away win in the Premier League since their trip to Brighton and Hove Albion on 7 December 2020; longer than any other team currently in the division. They had now lost seven and drawn one of their last eight games in the Premier League. Southampton were awarded a penalty after 33 minutes but the decision was reversed after a VAR review due to no foul being committed.
