Southampton v Arsenal: Charlie Nicholas reveals St Mary's prediction
CHARLIE NICHOLAS is confident Arsenal will claim all three points when they face Southampton tomorrow.
Charlie Nicholas predicts Arsenal at St Mary's
Arsenal took down Manchester United 2-0 at home on Sunday to boost their slim chances of breaking into the top four this season.
And while Southampton earned a hard-fought point in Saturday's 0-0 draw at Liverpool, Nicholas can't see anything other than a win for Arsenal.
But the former Gunners striker believes Arsene Wenger's side will still miss out on a Champions League qualifying spot even if they beat the Saints.
Nicholas told Sky Sports: "It's another side who like goalless draws for Arsenal and it's another must-win game with the slender chance of a top-four finish still just about there.

I'm expecting Arsenal to beat Southampton
"Southampton have caused them problems over the last few seasons, but I think Claude Puel is asking a lot of his team to go out and produce another dogged performance.
"I think the pressure is off in terms of the top four and we know that suits this Arsenal team.
"So I'm expecting them to win this, but even if they do I still won't be expecting them to qualify for the Champions League."
