Southampton XI vs Wrexham – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Southampton travel to Wrexham tonight, aiming to leapfrog their hosts and move into the play-off positions.

The Saints arrive in Wales as the Championship’s most clinical side over the last 15 matches. Manager Tonda Eckert oversaw a stunning FA Cup win over Arsenal on Saturday night. Southampton are currently on a 12-game unbeaten run in the league. They now search for three consecutive clean sheets for the first time in over two years.

Southampton team news

Tonda Eckert expects to rotate his squad to manage the heavy recent workload. Crucially, Flynn Downes returns to the heart of midfield after serving a suspension. Previously, Shea Charles and Cyle Larin started on the bench against Arsenal but should return tonight.

Cameron Archer is also a candidate to operate in a more advanced attacking role. However, Mads Roerslev and Welington are both unavailable due to injuries. Jack Stephens also remains a doubt following a muscle problem.

Daniel Peretz will start in goal behind a back four anchored by Taylor Harwood-Bellis. In midfield, Downes and Charles will provide the energy required to combat Wrexham’s physical style.

Finn Azaz and Cameron Archer are expected to provide the creative spark in the final third. Cyle Larin will likely lead the line as the primary striker. The Saints have won nine of their last 12 league outings. They will look for another professional display to secure a vital away win.
