Southampton vs Leicester City

Live action, analysis, and reaction from St Mary's as Leicester City and Southampton go head to head on Saturday evening in a Premier League relegation ...

The team news is in and there are six changes for City, with Ward, Souttar, Castagne, Mendy, Iheanacho, and, importantly, Maddison coming back in. City were relegated in both of those campaigns. We are live at St Mary's to bring you action, analysis, and reaction. But there's no Kristiansen, so Ricardo keeps his spot with Castagne at left-back. Then the pressure will really be on Brendan Rodgers and his players. They perhaps suffered an even more embarrassing FA Cup exit in midweek, losing to League Two side Grimsby, a day after City were eliminated by Championship outfit Blackburn.

Leicester goalkeeper Danny Ward speaking to Sky Sports: "We've had a real lack of consistency in our games this year. Fair play to the goalkeeper, but three points is better than any goal you can score. We've got a great group of players who are very honest; they had the courage to take the ball and you could see that. On the relegation battle, Rodgers said: "It's a challenge but if we continue to play like that, we'll get the points we need to stay up. The players have the qualities to finish but sometimes you get games like that." Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse speaking to Sky Sports: "It's a huge result. We are disappointed with the goal, but the players regrouped. There was a lengthy VAR check for offside, but the goal was allowed to stand. The opportunities that we created we just couldn't finish. Southampton manager Ruben Selles speaking to Sky Sports: "The performance can always be better. "We haven't had a great set of results this season. It also provided a welcome lift after the shock midweek FA Cup loss to League Two Grimsby.

Southampton move to within a point of a position of Premier League safety after beating fellow strugglers Leicester City.

Southampton host Leicester at St Mary's Stadium on Saturday with the hosts hoping this is the start of their great escape against relegation.

Bournemouth tried something very peculiar from the kick off with everyone lining up on one side and they played it to the other and scored. The 30-year-old scored 15 times with eight assists last season with Sporting Lisbon and has nine goals in 26 caps for Spain. A reminder, even though that goal was ridiculously quick that isn’t the fastest goal in Premier League history. Loads of time for Arsenal to get a winner here. FULL TIME – Aston Villa 1-0 Crystal Palace: Villa hold on quite easily in the end and that is a big win for them as they push for a top 10 finish. We had the hunger to go for the first goal. Aston Villa lead and it’s a really unfortunate own goal from Joachim Andersen. They have a drawn a lot of games and they can be solid at the back so Palace’s main hope is that Zaha is back up and running quickly and can lead a surge away from the relegation zone. Palace have failed to win any of their last nine Premier League games and have 27 points as they’re now just above the relegation zone. The Foxes have lost their last two in a row in the Premier League and defensively they’re starting to look all over the place once again. They have shown enough to suggest they can get out of trouble (they are bottom of the table but somehow just four points from safety) but they need to win this game. Leicester are slipping back towards the relegation zone and this is a massive game for Brendan Rodgers as his side aim to push back into midtable.

we need to exploit our best strengths … Southampton make four changes to the side that went down 1-0 at Leeds United last week. if we do that, we will have chances to win the game … we need to be better … we are here and we are ready to go, to make a good game and perform at our best level … we need to turn things around …
