Southampton have won eight, drawn four and lost three of their 15 league games this season, scoring 29 and conceding 15. Nobody has beaten the hosts on their own ground yet: seven home games, six wins and one draw. They tend to be in open games: both sides have scored in 11 of their 15.

This season Derby County have two wins, four draws and nine defeats from 15 league matches, a goal difference of โˆ’16. The visitors have gone W1 D2 L4 in away games, scoring 1.0 goals a game. They have one win from their last five in all competitions and won 3โ€“1 at home to Bolton Wanderers in their latest game.

When they last met at St. Mary's Stadium, in April 2026, Southampton won.

The AI makes a 1โ€“0 win for Southampton the most likely result, although it also leans towards both teams scoring. That fits the season so far: both teams have found the net in most of either side's league games. No prediction is guaranteed; it is one view of how the game could go.
