This evening Southampton will face Swansea City in what is perhaps their most important fixture since the turn of the decade.
As Dan Hargraves put in his match preview yesterday, this game truly is do or die – win and stay up, lose and go down.
A victory would leave the Saints three points clear of the drop with a far superior goal difference to their rivals, whereas a defeat would leave them potentially three points clear of safety going into their final game of the season against Champions Manchester City.
Southampton should be full of confidence however after four points from their last two games, which should’ve been six but for some dodgy refereeing and a poor clearance from Ryan Bertrand.
The Swans have been a better side since Carlos Carvalhal took charge but they’ve still been one of the league’s least impressive teams – they have struggled for goals all season and as a result this it’s been tough to single out three distinct threats against Southampton tomorrow.
Nonetheless – for the penultimate time this campaign – here are three players the Saints should keep their eye on tomorrow.
