Southampton - Middlesbrough 
Southampton remained at 1-1 at home to Hapoel Beer Sheva and missed the opportunity to qualify for the next phase of the Europa League. The "Saints", among others, lost in the 40 'of the match with an injury to their bomber, Austin, with the atmosphere being ... heavy. Earlier they were defeated 3-0 by Crystal Palace, thus completing the puzzle of recent failure.
"Boro" won 1-0 against Hull and continued the good performances and the positive results, reaching its recent series of 2-3-1 (the defeat by Chelsea). Karanka's team is playing exceptionally well this year, having the definition of the tough team with a series of 1-5-1. In the latest results, he even scored points from West Ham, Arsenal, Manchester City and Leicester!
A good opportunity for Middlesbrough to continue and expand its streak, taking advantage of Southampton's temporary absence and Austin's absence. I keep the X2 warm at 2.45.
