Team News

Southampton
West Ham
  • Sofiane Boufal was only fit enough for a place on the bench at the weekend as he continues to deal with a toe injury.
  • Stuart Armstrong is ruled out for Southampton on Saturday.
  • Danny Ings has scored in five straight matches for Southampton.
  • Anything other than three points will likely spell the end of Manuel Pellegrini's time in charge of West Ham.
  • Michail Antonio looked to have suffered some sort of muscle injury at the end of Monday's defeat to Arsenal and may need assessing closer to kick-off.
  • Aaron Cresswell came off injured against Monday and is unlikely to recover in time here. Arthur Masuaku is the natural replacement despite his poor showing off the bench against Arsenal.
  • Issa Diop and Sebastien Haller will hope to benefit from any rotation applied on Saturday.
  • So many players are out of form for West Ham at the moment but Pellegrini doesn't have many options in his squad at present.
  • Felipe Anderson scored a brace in this fixture last season and he could do with another performance here to end his poor form in front of goal.

Prediction

  • Southampton start the weekend in the bottom three on goal difference.
  • West Ham are one point above Southampton and have lost five of their last six.
  • This is widely considered Manuel Pellegrini's last chance to save his job at West Ham. Will he get the result he needs to save his job?
