Comments:
League position: 13th Southampton avoided losing an 11th home league game in a season for the first time in their Premier League and Football League history. In his 30th appearance for the club in all competitions, Che Adams scored his first goal for the Saints following his move from Birmingham City in July 2019. Southampton remained as the only current team in the Premier League that had yet to draw a game in 2020.0 Manchester City
