After Everton defeated West Ham 2-0 at Goodison earlier, we now turn our attentions to St Mary’s as Southampton entertain Chelsea at 4pm.

Diego Costa and Eden Hazard boast the greatest threat as the Blues look to grab a fourth successive league win.

The Spain international – who remains one yellow away from a single-match ban – has netted four goals in as many road trips, whilst Hazard has notched in each of his last four starts for club and country.

Chelsea’s recent move to 3-4-3 has harvested three straight clean sheets in the top-flight, though their hosts have been similarly resilient in front of their own fans.

The Saints have conceded just one goal in their last five home matches in all competitions and have been breached on only eight occasions over the first nine Gameweeks.

With a trip to Hull next up on their agenda, Nathan Redmond and Charlie Austin have the chance to stake a claim for our consideration, as the latter looks to net for the third successive league outing.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Unsure which player to get in and which to get rid of. One free transfer;
    Either Son or Rashford for Redmond or Austion. Which one looks better?

    A) Son > Redmond
    B) Rashford > Austin

    1. Yankee Toffee
      10 years, 8 days ago

        1. THE Wild Rover
          10 years, 8 days ago

          Austin, to fund Kone to Fuchs

          1. Syd.
            10 years, 8 days ago

            Think I will be getting Fuchs in for Valencia

  8. Chasing Waves
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Is 1-1 with 2 own goals too much to ask for?

  9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Brace for Charlie Austin now would be loverly juberly

    1. big_cliff

  10. Bubz
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Repost due to new thread.
    Not a good week for me with only Sanchez and lukaku as my big hitters.

    My team below:
    Stekelenburg Pickford
    Bellerin Morgan smith holebas amat
    Payet firmino mane Sanchez Allen
    Lukaku deeney Wilson

    2 FT, 1.4 ITB. What should I do?
    Really thinking of doing stekelenburg to heaton before price rises and save 1 more as the week progress.

    Potentially looking at:
    Sanchez/Payet to KDB
    Deeney to another striker
    Or should I fix Sanchez/payet and deeney instead of my GK?

  12. Feed tha Sheep
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Best replacement for Antonio for 7million?Is Gundagon a decent shout for 5.5 or not fantasy material?

    1. Niemi
      10 years, 8 days ago

      Redmond or Chadli IMO. At 7.2 Tadic/Arnautovic/Sigurdsson are good options.

    2. Cheester
      10 years, 8 days ago

      Chadli?

  13. fedolefan
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Damn Matic kung-fu'd Austin.

  14. makaveli123
    10 years, 8 days ago

    100 - the number of goals that Chelsea will score on counter attack this season

  15. tm245
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Lets say you made some stupid Friday evening transfers. Is the best way to move on to immediately swap Zlatan to Lukaku and tell yourself that you must have misplaced those 20 points somewhere?

  16. Krul Runnings
    10 years, 8 days ago

    1-1 with two obscure goalscorers.

    You know the drill.
