While the Southampton board are backing Russell Martin to succeed in the Premier League, there are still some chances that the Saints may get relegated again at the end of the season.

Moreover, other bottom-table sides such as Wolves and Crystal Palace have also stepped up their performances in recent matches and thus, Southampton need to continue their winning momentum in the next league fixtures as well. Therefore, the next away match against nineteenth-placed Wolves is another must-win game for Southampton as a win in this six-pointer match could boost their momentum even further before the upcoming international break.
