Team News

Southampton
QPR
  • Russell Martin could make one change to the side that beat Plymouth last time out with Joe Aribo replacing Stuart Armstrong in midfield.
  • New signing Flynn Downes could make the bench, but is unlikely to feature from the off.
  • Will Smallbone is among four confirmed absentees for the Saints this weekend.
  • Expect summer signing Jack Colback to start at St. Mary's this weekend, but he is unlikely to complete the full 90 minutes.
  • Chris Willock was only fit enough to play the first half against Ipswich but should be good to complete the game on Saturday.

Prediction

  • Southampton were forced to wait until the third minute of stoppage time to find a breakthrough against newly-promoted Plymouth last weekend with Che Adams' late goal sealing a 2-1 away win at Home Park. Russell Martin's men remain unbeaten in the new campaign with seven points to show from their first three league outings.
  • The optimism whipped up by QPR's surprise away win against Cardiff was quickly neutralised last Saturday when the London club were beaten 1-0 by Ipswich on home soil. Gareth Ainsworth will take some positives from the performance against the early league leaders, but two defeats from three games is a less-than-ideal start for the visitors.
