This match features two teams living in the basement of the Premier League, Southampton holding 19th place and Everton lying 17th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
It's no vacation for neither Southampton nor Everton as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
