Despite coming on the back of two consecutive 3-1 defeats in the Premier League, Southampton would want to take inspiration from their previous home fixture. Although Southampton couldn't take a win against fellow promoted side Ipswich Town, they managed to keep aside their four consecutive defeats and took some momentum with the 1-1 draw.

Moreover, Southampton faced Everton in the Carabao Cup third round last month, when the two sides were at the bottom of the league table. That was another big match for Southampton and Russell Martin's side showed resilience and gave an encouraging performance to win the match 6-5 on penalties.

The home fixture with Steve Cooper's Leicester City is a similar match as well, and the Saints need to put up another impressive display to take the three points from the match. On that note, here is the best Southampton lineup to register a much-needed home win against Leicester City.

While Aaron Ramsdale hasn't enjoyed a great start to his Southampton career, the former Arsenal goalkeeper is expected to again start for Russell Martin's side. In five Premier League matches for the Saints, Ramsdale has conceded a total of 13 goals, while averaging around four massive saves in each match.
