Advertisement Our last game against the Saints dates back to the 2020/21 campaign. On home soil we beat Southampton 7-1 with Liam Delap bagging a hat-trick to help City win the PL2 title. In the reverse fixture prior, Southampton ran out with a 5-2 win. LAST TIME OUT Compared to the two previous play-off games, City fought off United inside 90 minutes. After a tightly contested first half in the semi-final, Divin Mubama gave City a well-deserved lead on 66 minutes, nodding home from close range after a fantastic Lakyle Samuel cross. The game continued to be a tight and difficult affair until the 89th minute when Mubama struck again, putting the game out of reach for the Red Devils with a clever backheel.
