Southampton travel away to face Chelsea this weekend as they look to bounce back from their defeat to Leicester.
The Saints were humiliated in midweek as they were trounced 4-1 by Leicester at St. Mary’s, conceding three goals in the first-half on Claude Puel’s return to the club.
Dusan Tadic pulled a goal back in the second-half, but it was not enough to spare any blushes for Southampton in the match.
Southampton have run a couple of big times close of late, drawing to Arsenal and being narrowly beaten by Manchester City at The Etihad.
Mauricio Pellegrino’s side were unfortunate not to beat Arsenal last Sunday, as a late Olivier Giroud goal rescued a point for Arsenal at St. Mary’s.
Pellegrino has no fresh injury concerns heading into the game and should have a full squad at his disposal to choose from.
Here is how we expect Southampton to line-up against Chelsea…
