Southampton
A place in the Championship playoffs final will be at stake when West Bromwich Albion and Southampton lock horns in a highly-anticipated double-header. WBA head into the first leg following a routine 3-0 win over Preston, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Southampton. Both Jayson Molumby and Daryl Dike are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Saints, on the other hand, defeated Leeds United at Elland Road in their last game of the regular season. Southampton seem to be more of a team than WBA and even though the Baggies are tough to beat at the Hawthorns, away win should be considered. The likes of Stuart Armstrong, Gavin Bazunu, and Juan Larios should miss out with injuries for the visiting side. In their last meeting at the venue Southampton defeated West Brom 2-0.
Highlighted Team (Southampton):
Southampton are an English football club that have been playing their home games at St Mary's Stadium since 2001. The Saints were based at The Dell in the past and the capacity of Southampton’s new stadium is 32,505. Southampton wear red and white striped shirts and the colour of the team’s away kit is navy and green.
The Saints have yet to win the Premier League trophy, but they did well to clinch the FA Cup title back in 1976, while participating in the final of the prestigious competition in 1900, 1902 and 2003. Southampton outplayed Manchester United in the 1976 FA Cup final and that is probably the club’s greatest victory ever.
The club are well known for their football academy and Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale is one of the players who began their football carrier at the St. Mary’s Stadium outfit. Southampton’s fiercest rivals are Portsmouth and the two teams square off against each other in the South Coast Derby.
