Southampton travel to Molineux this weekend with the hope of putting a run of three consecutive league defeats to an end. Wolves come into this fixture off the back of a shock win away to the league champions Manchester City.
Wolves currently sit in 11th place in the Premier League, three points above Southampton, who now languish in 17th with seven points.
The last time the two sides faced off was back in April, as Southampton recorded their last win of the 2018/19 Premier League thanks to a brace from Nathan Redmond and Shane Long, who got the final goal in the 3-1 victory at St Mary’s.
Southampton are still without Cedric Soares and Moussa Djenepo for the fixture – both remain sidelined – while Wolves could be without Diogo Jota, Romain Saiss, Pedro Neto and Leander Dendoncker.
Onto the combined XI, the team will line up in a 3-4-3 formation, which players from both sides have a familiarity with. This formation pushes the wing-backs further forward, allowing for a more effective high press.
As always with these combined line-ups, it will only contain the best players that will be available for the forthcoming fixture.
