Southampton given odds of 20/1 to break Derby County's lowest points record
Betting specials continue to be offered on the Premier League season with UK Betting Sites now giving odds on how Southampton's season will look when it finishes.
The Saints have struggled in the league so far with just 6 points won in their opening 20 games and it doesn't get any easier for them with a tricky run of games on the way.
Ladbrokes now go 20/1 that Southampton break Derby County's unwanted record of 11 points with the Rams winning just one game across the 2007/08 season.
Southampton have won just one game so far this campaign with a 1-0 win over Everton back at the start of November giving them half of their 6 earned points.
With Ivan Jurić not turning their fortunes around since taking over, Southampton look doomed for relegation and they need a further 6 points to break Derby's record low.

|---|---|---|
| Southampton to finish season with 20+ points | 5/6 | 54.5% |
| Southampton to break Derby County's lowest points record | 20/1 | 4.8% |
What the expert says...
Derby accumulated a total of 11 points in 2007-08
Derby County have gone down in history as the worst Premier League ever with just 11 points earned in the 2007-8 Premier League season.
The Rams were promoted to the Premier League following promotion via the playoffs and won just one game on September 17th where a Kenny Miller goal saw them win 1-0 against Newcastle.
Derby ended the season on a 32-game winless run and conceded a total of 89 goals and they have not featured in the Premier League since that year.
Saints are 1/100 to be relegated this season
Betting odds also continue to be offered on the Premier League relegation battle and it's unsurprising to see Southampton clear favourites to go down this season.
The opening 20 games of the season sees Southampton bottom of the table on 6 points and 10 points away from safety with Ipswich in 17th place on 16 points.
Leicester and Ipswich follow the Saints in the betting market to make it a hat-trick of last season's promoted sides to go straight back down again this year.
| Premier League Relegation 2024/25 | Odds | Probability |
