Southampton vs West Brom April 27, 2013
It is hard to tell which of these teams are sitting in the top half of the table and which, up until recently, were caught up in the battle for Premier League survival. Southampton are fourth in the form table, behind only Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United, with Jay Rodriguez and Ricky Lambert currently playing with an almost telepathic understanding in attack. West Brom, meanwhile, have won only one of their last six matches with their cause not helped by the ongoing absence of Chris Brunt and the suspended Youssuf Mulumbu. Jamie Burton
