Southampton – Ipswich Preview: Latest Form, News, and Potential Lineups
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Southampton vs Ipswich lineups.
Southampton
Southampton started the new season well (W3 D1) but they suffered consecutive heavy defeats in the last two rounds. On Saturday the Saints lost 1-4 at home against leaders Leicester. They were simply outfoxed in midfield and this created tons of problems defensively.
This was the third game in just the last five rounds in which Southampton conceded 4 or more goals. Clearly, the big issues are at the back as the Saints continue to score plenty with both Armstrong (4 goals) and Adams (3 goals) in fine form up front.
Goalkeeper Bazunu conceded 9 goals in the last 2 rounds and now veteran McCarthy could be preferred from the off between the posts.
Winger Sulemana was sent off at the weekend and he will be missing suspended now. This could prove an issue as the other main winger Edozie got hurt on Saturday and might be absent too. Mara seems poised for a rare start if both are absent.
Influential centre-back Stephens and the useful backup full-back Larios are long-term absentees. Striker Stewart is injured too but his absence is going unnoticed with the main forwards in fine form.
Predicted Lineup:
McCarthy (GK), Bree, Bednarek, Harwood-Bellis, Walker-Peters, Mara, Alcaraz, Smallbone, Fraser, Adams & Armstrong
Ipswich
Ipswich continued to impress when edging Sheff Wed 1-0 away from home on Saturday. Chaplin scored his 3rd league goal of the season to deliver the win with the Tractor Boys now with 5 wins in 6 rounds since their promotion last spring.
Ipswich have kept 3 clean sheets in the last 5 rounds too and the displays so far have been very solid.
The main left-back Davis got hurt on Saturday and he is ruled out now. This is not a major issue as the Man United loanee Brandon Williams was pushing for starts anyway.
There are no other serious injury issues in the squad with only 2 fringe players joining Davis in the treatment room right now.
In an attempt to keep the momentum going the gaffer might not rotate the squad.
Predicted Lineup:
Hladky (GK), Clarke, Woolfenden, Burgess, Williams, Luongo, Morsy, Burns, Chaplin, Broadhead & Jackson
Starting Lineups
The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.

Player to Watch: Adam Armstrong
Southampton’s star striker Adam Armstrong is starting the season well and he has scored 4 goals in 6 rounds. Armstrong scored 3 goals in 3 home matches played. The 26-year-old also hit the woodwork 3 times already so he could have easily had more goals.
With Southampton unable to rely on their defence we expect another aggressive display from them and this should give Armstrong plenty of scoring opportunities. Considering his current form we back him to increase his tally for the season in the coming match.
