Romelu Lukaku will be looking to end a run of four games without a goal when he leads the Chelsea attack against Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

The Belgium international has registered four goals in eight outings for the Blues since re-joining the club in a £97.5m deal during the latter stages of the summer transfer window.

Lukaku has three Premier League goals in five appearances during his second spell at the club but has drawn blanks against Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Manchester City and Juventus in his last four outings.

Chelsea will now be looking to bounce back from successive defeats when they host Southampton, and here Sports Mole looks at how Lukaku has fared against the Saints in the past.

The 28-year-old has faced Southampton on 12 previous occasions and boasts a record of seven wins, two draws and three defeats against the Saints in the Premier League.

Lukaku has certainly enjoyed himself against Southampton, finding the back of the net nine times, in addition to providing three assists.

Two of the forward's outings against the Saints came during his time at West Bromwich Albion, recording back-to-back wins during the 2012-13 campaign, while he took on the Hampshire outfit eight times with Everton, scoring four goals against them while at Goodison Park.

Lukaku also faced Southampton on four occasions during his time at Manchester United and found the back of the net on four occasions, including three times in their two encounters during the 2018-19 Premier League campaign.

Only against West Ham United has the Belgian netted more times - 11 in 15 appearances - suggesting that Ralph Hasenhuttl's side should be wary of the former Anderlecht youngster on Saturday afternoon.
