Comments:

League position: 14th Southampton scored more than two goals in a game for the first time since a 3-1 win against Fulham in the Premier League on 15 May 2021. This was the Saints' first win in their last seven games in the Premier League (lost three). Tino Livramento became the first teenager to start in each of his team's first 18 games of a season in the Premier League since Manchester City's Micah Richards in 2006-07. Southampton were awarded a penalty after 59 minutes following a VAR review.
