Bet Saturday morning Soccer: Arsenal, Southampton, both looking to finish in Premier League European spots
There are many people who think that Arsenal might be the best placed team to break into the top seven this season in the Premier League.
There are not many who think that Southampton can do the same.
But as the new season starts Saturday in England, both teams may be closer than many people think.
Both will also want to get off to a winning start. Arsenal has to face newly-promoted Fulham, while Southampton takes on a Crystal Palace side that came back after the break and played miserably.
I would not be surprised if both Fulham and Crystal Palace could be in the relegation zone come January.
