Predicted opposition XI: Arsenal (H)

Saints are back in Premier League action this weekend, as they prepare to host Arsenal, in Sunday’s lunch-time kick-off.

Mauricio Pellegrino has said he will keep his attackers guessing over who will be given a starting place, as his side look to strike down the Gunners.

Arsenal, who are fresh off the back of an emphatic Europa League win over BATE Borisov, will be without Shkodran Mustafi for the game, with Santi Cazorla also missing out.

Southampton will be without right-back Cedric Soares, who is still recovering from a hamstring injury that he suffered against Manchester City a few weeks ago.

Arsene Wenger’s side have only been victorious at St Mary’s once in their last six Premier League attempts, however, with this win coming in May, Arsenal will be looking to get back to back league wins away against Saints for the first time since 1997.

Here’s how I think the Gunners will line up.
