Goalkeeper and Defenders
Alex McCarthy
Has been in great form this season and is deservedly number one at this moment in time.
Kyle Walker-Peters
A key part of the Saints defence and, in many ways, a key part of the Saints attack too with a heavy focus down his and Stuart Armstrong’s right flank.
Jan Bednarek
Set to retain his place in the starting line-up after committing the next five years of his career to the club.
Jannik Vestergaard
Part of a strong partnership at the heart of the defence that should be kept together as long as possible.
If Saints have a comfortable lead in the latter stages, it will be interesting to see if Mohammed Salisu is given some minutes on the pitch.
Ryan Bertrand
Has done a good defensive job in recent games working with Djenepo, but it will be interesting to see if he is given more attacking freedom on Monday.
