Southampton travel to Craven Cottage to face Championship side Fulham in the second round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.
Saints come off the back of their first win of the season after a 2-0 victory at the Amex Stadium against Brighton on Saturday and will be hoping to back that up with another positive result.
Since their relegation to the Championship last season, Fulham have had a mixed start to their campaign. They have won three and lost two of their first five matches.
This could be an opportunity for Ralph Hasenhuttl to experiment with some fringe players who haven’t been given their chance to star in a Saints shirt yet this season.
It will also be interesting to see what formation the manager uses after choosing to play the team in three different systems in each game so far: 5-2-3 against Burnley, 5-3-2 against Liverpool and 4-2-2-2 in the win over Brighton.
Here’s how we predict the Southampton side to line up.
