# Southampton vs Tottenham – How will The Saints line up?

Off the back of yet another disappointing loss away at Crystal Palace last weekend, Ronald Koeman will hope to mastermind a change in fortunes for his Southampton side as they gear up to face an impressive Tottenham side at St. Mary’s on Saturday.

The Saints are without a win in five games and find themselves in the bottom half of the Premier League; a position in which Koeman will not look upon with great satisfaction. However, Spurs find themselves in a fine position at 5th due to an excellent campaign so far under former-Saints boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Here is how I believe Southampton will line up against Spurs on Saturday.
