Player to Watch – Flynn Downes
Flynn Downes has been Southampton’s chief enforcer in midfield this season and the 24-year-old has been averaging 1.9 tackles and 1.6 interceptions per game in the Championship since August. Downes’ ability to stick his foot in could be needed in a tough test at QPR on Saturday.
