West Bromwich Albion v Southampton: match preview

After losing 2-0 at home against Liverpool, Southampton will be happy to get back on the road, where recent results have been much better and helped to sustain their pursuit of a place in the top four. Ronald Koeman’s side have taken 13 points from a possible 15 away, although they will have to be at their best to continue that run against Albion, who are edging clear of the relegation zone and looking for a fifth clean sheet in seven league games under Tony Pulis. Stuart James
