Comments and predictions for Southampton vs Leicester: Fierce attack

Latest Southampton vs Leicester team information

Before beating Arsenal, Jack Stephens was banned for two more matches following his three-match suspension for his red card against Manchester United. He will miss the next match.

Southampton were also hampered when striker Ross Stewart was forced off with a muscle injury in the first half of their defeat to Arsenal, and manager Russell Martin confirmed Stewart will not play this weekend. Yukinari Sugawara has fitness issues but is still part of the Japan squad for the international break.

Gavin Bazunu (Achilles) is a long-term absentee, but Martin has reported that Kamaldeen Sulemana (ankle) and Will Smallbone (thigh) are both ready to return. Leicester boss Steve Cooper said the injury situation has not changed since before the international break. Centre-back Jannik Vestergaard is back after playing for Denmark.

Patson Daka and Jakub Stolarczyk are still recovering from ankle injuries, while Hamza Choudhury could be out for months after picking up a shoulder injury in training in early October. Despite his love of scoring against big teams, Leicester captain Jamie Vardy has his best record against Southampton, having had 12 goal involvements (8 goals and 4 assists) – his most against a single team in the league in his career.

Latest Southampton vs Leicester football review

A seemingly predictable game produced a surprise at the Emirates last weekend, with Southampton holding their own against Arsenal in the first half and taking a surprise lead through Cameron Archer. However, the Southampton fans' joy was quickly extinguished after just three minutes, when Kai Havertz capitalised on a mistake from the visitors to equalise for Arsenal. Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka then completed the Gunners' comeback.

Defeat in north London did not humiliate Southampton but it left them in 19th place, one of four teams without a win in the Premier League this season, along with Ipswich Town, Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton. Manager Russell Martin is now safe in charge, but if Southampton fail to win on Saturday they will set a sad record of 21 games without a win in the English top flight.

Despite their reputation for possession-based football, Southampton have scored just four goals, their worst return this season. Leicester City, on the other hand, got their first win after beating Bournemouth 1-0 thanks to a Facundo Buonanotte goal, lifting them out of the relegation zone and currently sitting in 15th place.

Manager Steve Cooper's next target is to end an 11-game winless run away from home in the Premier League. Leicester are a year removed from their 9-0 thrashing at St Mary's, but they did have two impressive wins, 4-1 and 5-0, against Southampton in the Championship last season. Southampton could struggle against Leicester, who have scored eight goals away from home this season, and it will be difficult for them to find their first win.
