Southampton predicted lineup vs Leicester City - Premier League | OneFootball

Southampton bring a merciful halt to their dire second half of the season with a Premier League trip against Leicester City on Sunday afternoon.

Since a 2-0 victory over Norwich City at the end of February, Southampton have won just one Premier League match, losing eight. Only Championship-bound Watford have collected fewer points than the sinking Saints in this time frame.

Here's the XI Ralph Hasenhuttl may deploy to stop the rot.

Alex McCarthy (GK) - With Fraser Forster a doubt through various aches and pains, Hasenhuttl may be forced to turn to a goalkeeper that hasn't appeared in a Premier League win since November.Yan Valery (RB) - While both Tino Livramento and Romain Perraud recover from long-term injuries, Valery may be afforded a rare outing.Jan Bednarek (CB) - One of the career-high four goals Bednarek has scored this season came in the reverse fixture against Leicester.Mohammed Salisu (CB) - The buzzing defensive presence is among the Premier League's top five players for tackles, interceptions and yellow cards.Kyle Walker-Peters (LB) - The former Tottenham full-back has faced Leicester more often than any other club in his senior career (seven games).Stuart Armstrong (RM) - Since recovering from a calf injury in winter, Armstrong has appeared in every Premier League match post-Christmas.James Ward-Prowse (CM) - The club's captain, leading scorer and joint-top assist provider has only been kept on the sidelines through suspension this season.Oriol Romeu (CM) - Southampton's midfield-ratter is just four bookings short of breaking Luke Young's Premier League record for yellow cards without ever being sent off (62).Nathan Redmond (LM) - Buoyed by his first Premier League goal in midweek since April 2021, Redmond hasn't found the net away from home for almost two years.Armando Broja (ST) - The Chelsea loanee has gone 13 Premier League games without scoring.Che Adams (ST) -
