Southampton Vs QPR Team News
After the 3-2 win at West Ham on MD12, Southampton boss Tonda Eckert could be tempted to stick with the same starting XI that won in east London. That would mean that Flynn Downes and Cyle Larin would have to settle for a place on the bench. If they are passed fit in time.
QPR’s 5-0 thrashing of Swansea came at a slight cost as Boy Kemper picked up a knock. However, the R’s camp remain confident the Dutch defender will make the journey south. There is also hope that Illias Chair and Alfie Lloyd will make the cut. As expected, last week’s record-breaking hat-trick hero Richard Kone will spearhead the attack.
