Sunderland vs Southampton lineups
Sunderland
Things have not gone swimmingly for Sunderland lately; they suffered four losses in their last six matches, and have just one win in their last seven games. Tony Mowbray will hope to turn things around as his men take on an in-form Southampton side. He'll have to do without Jay Matete and Corry Evans.
Predicted lineups: Patterson, Hume, O'Nien, Ballard, Cirkin, Neil, Ekwah, Ba, Dack, Clarke, Bellingham.
Southampton
On the other hand, Will Smallbone and Juan Larios are both sidelined for Southampton due to injury. The visitors won their last two games, and have no losses in three matches; they'll hope to string up three consecutive wins for the first time since January.
Predicted lineups: Bazunu, Peters, Bednarek, Downes, Manning, Alcaraz, Charles, Armstrong, Ameyaw, Armstrong, Arribo.

Player to watch: Adam Armstrong
It may interest you to know that only one team has scored more goals than Southampton in the Championship this season. They've scored 10 goals in four league matches so far, and Adam Armstrong was directly involved in five of them. As a matter of fact, the 26 year old player has four goals and an assist in the Championship; he's the joint top-scorer at the time of writing. Adam Armstrong should cause all sorts of problems for Sunderland's defense.
