The last season was not a pleasant experience for Southampton as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 6 victories from 38 games, relegation was a fact. Southampton's manager Martin are hoping to lead the team right back to Premier League at the first attempt.

Southampton have another match away from home in just four days, a Carabao Cup fixture against Gillingham. A back-breaking fixture list for the guests!

It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Southampton have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 1 win, 0 draws and 3 defeats from four fixtures.
