Rock-bottom Southampton are in danger of being cut adrift in the relegation zone ahead of the visit of a Leicester City side that is still far from safe.
Saints are rooted to the foot of the table, four points from safety, and they need to find form soon with 14 games remaining.
Ruben Selles’ side hit arguably the lowest point of their season so far in midweek when they were knocked out of the FA Cup by League Two outfit Grimsby Town.
It was their fifth defeat in the last six games in all competitions and certainly the most embarrassing, but the one win in that period – against Chelsea – gives them some hope to cling on to.
Leicester are 14th, three points above the drop zone, and suffered a shock cup exit of their own in midweek as they went out at home to Blackburn Rovers.
That was the Foxes’ third defeat in a row in all competitions and they risk being dragged into the bottom three if things don’t turn around soon.
Kick-off is at 3.00pm GMT. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League wherever you are.

VPN guide
If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won’t be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t’internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that’s a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
