🗞️ Team News: Southampton

It seems likely that The Saints look set to make use of the 4-2-3-1 formation for this game, utilising Daniel Peretz, James Bree, T. Harwood-Bellis, Jack Stephens, Ryan Manning, Flynn Downes, Caspar Jander, Kuryu Matsuki, Samuel Edozie, Finn Azaz and Cyle Larin.

📋 Team News: Oxford United

It’s our belief that The U's will likely play in a 4-2-3-1 system, starting Jamie Cumming, Sam Long, Michal Helik, Ciaron Brown, Jack Currie, Yunus Konak, Cameron Brannagan, Stanley Mills, Jamie Donley, Aidomo Emakhu and Will Lankshear.

💡 Prediction

We feel that Southampton will more than likely get amongst the goals when they face Oxford United, who could well find it tough to break down their defence.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a fairly comfortable 2-0 victory for Southampton when the full-time whistle blows.
