Southampton's James Ward-Prowse (calf) will be assessed, while Danny Ings and Theo Walcott are both available for the visit of Burnley.

Charlie Taylor and Jack Cork are both back in contention for Burnley.

But Robbie Brady will be missing after sustaining a knock on international duty with Republic of Ireland. Ashley Barnes (thigh) continues to make good progress but this match comes too soon.

Did you know?

Southampton can complete a league double over Burnley for the first time since 1970/71.

The 51 goals conceded so far by Southampton is the second highest total in the Premier League.

Burnley will target back-to-back away PL wins for the first time since July 2020.

Chris Wood’s six PL goals have been worth nine points to Burnley this season, the most since he earned them 12 in 2017/18.
