How to stop autocorrect from autofilling in Safari

When I'm in Safari and I type a word wrong, the little autocorrect text box pops up. I'd like to keep that text box, but the problem is the text autofills even when I don't click on it. The moment I hit space bar, the word is changed. And it does this multiple times, so it doesn't even seem to be disabled by deleting the word. I want autocorrect in case I misspell a word, I just don't want it autofilling. Is there a way to get this feature without disabling autocorrect?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Instead of hitting the space bar, tap the right arrow first, then hit the space bar if necessary.
