‘Good form’, and ‘Southampton’, are a group of words that don’t usually go together, yet it has oddly been the case this season when looking at their record on the road.

A 4-0 win at Fratton Park on Tuesday made it four victories in a row for the Saints as well as four consecutive away clean sheets, an impressive run of form for the south coast side.
With Tottenham coming up next, though, this unbeaten record will seemingly be pushed to new heights as Southampton travel up to the English capital to take on Mauricio Pochettino’s side.
Yet this run of form is something the club have highlighted going into the game on Saturday, and supporters on social media have been praising the club for this impressive streak.
Here is what some Southampton fans had to say on Twitter about the club’s four-game away winning streak…
Sort out the home form and we’re on to something good…

FOUR wins
FOUR clean sheets
And FOUR NIL in their own back yard!— Ralph In (@Puel_Out) September 26, 2019
I didn't bother with the photos as they all look the same to me but being as they were all wins for The Saints they must be good, I wonder what Braille photos are like? COYR

Maybe we could win against city if that's the case

Some fans, though, were not too convinced the run would go any further following the fixture against Tottenham…
Have a feeling this will end Saturday. Bring it on

You better not jinx it for Saturday

Losing at home to Bournemouth rather ruins it though eh?

With Tottenham losing to Colchester United midweek, there is reason to believe that Southampton can pull off an upset this weekend.
