Saints have not been playing as well as we would have liked which makes this game very important. Swindon have struggled since selling their star striker and this could be a glorious opportunity for the home side to get a winning run going.
Vital Quotes:
Southampton Team News:
Adam Lallana is getting stronger all the time and having played in the last game should be nearing full match fitness. Morgan Schneiderlin was on the bench against Hartlepool and could get a start this time round. Forte, Seaborne and Connolly could also be included.
Player to watch: Adam Lallana
Adam has been our best player for a while and this is a game that he can show what has been missing from our performances.
Swindon Team News:
Pericard, O’Brien and Misun could all be sidelined through injury. Striker Benyon also limped out of their last game at Carlisle. Lescinal Jean-Francois could return in defence after missing two games.
Player to watch: Mike Grella
On loan Leeds striker Grella could be a dangerous addition to the Swindon strike force.
