Attacking Midfield – Sofiane Boufal

Dusan Tadic may be fit but after getting his nose smashed in during internationals, could do with a break. Boufal brings a bit more of a killer instinct to the table than the Serbian, and this is a match where I think you give him 60-75 minutes from the outset and hope he finds you a goal or two. Not just in this game, but in general, the Saints badly need goals, and Tadic for all his quality as a distributor and a chance-creator just doesn’t seem to find them for himself.
