The Saints are in good form, but they do concede goals. Can we get over the halfway line to test their defence?

They can't concede when we don't attack. Comfortable Saints win.

Cant see anything other than a comfortable win for Southampton. They'll have too much for us.

I'm setting the bar low so as to avoid disappointment, I'm going for a defeat (obviously) but with us having more than 30% possession.

2 out 2 wins for Town after international breaks so far, although it was at home to Rotherham & QPR, the fixtures are good for us again in March with another home game (v Coventry). Saints five victories on the road have all been narrow ones (even at SW/PA both 2-1).....Another heavy loss for Town & support for DM will diminish further.

It’s not happened often in my Town watching life, but I’m struggling to even guess how many times we’ll have players in the Southampton penalty area.

Comfortable Saints win, hopefully Town getting a corner and having enough time left to take it.

I can’t believe how apathetic I am for this game! I will go but frankly I’m not arsed if it were called off or i suddenly couldn’t go. That’s the worst thing that’s going on at the moment as there is no joy in going, just loyalty and blind hope. I hope I’m wrong but all I can see is a loss on Saturday

I am really not very confident we will get anything from this game, we are probably going to park the bus and hope for the best, unfortunately I just believe we will not be good enough , 0-3 to Southampton.

Southampton in good form, 13 points from the last 5 games, hard to see anything but an away win. Bet 365 have Town 7/2, draw 14/5, Saints 7/10, sadly a 3-1 away win for me.

I honestly think we might end up with single figures possession for this one.

This'll be Darren Moore's 10th match since he took over. I'm yet to see any green shoots of progress on the pitch or any kind of identity, unless playing for 0-0's and not attempting to win games can be classed as his identity?
Nicholls
Nakayama Lees Helik Pearson Kasumu
Koroma Wiles Hogg Thomas
Hudlin
That's the team I'd go with, with Wiles, Koroma and Thomas to get up and support Hudlin at every opportunity.

1-0 Town. A complete shithouse performance with 21% possession and 1 shot on target. Helik with the goal.

That’s the worst thing that’s going on at the moment as there is no joy in going, just loyalty and blind hope. I hope I’m wrong but all I can see is a loss on Saturday Me also. The 2 I usually go with aren’t around this weekend and I cannot be arsed shlepping over from Leeds on my own to watch us likely play crap and lose again, possibly heavily. Fire stick for me and will probably nod off during the 2nd half when after being 3-0 down at h/t we’re just trying to shore up to keep it respectable.

The only way Town could get a point from this game would be to be assertive. Unfortunately, that's no Moore's way, but brave teams have done well against Saints, Rotherham among them. I would strongly recommend that Kyle Walker-Peters should be heavily marked. He is a very good attcking full-back, and adds considerably to Saints' attacking threat. The corollary of that is that he is susceptible to opponent's balls over his head, and therefore a strong left-wing presence (Koroma) would be a sound ploy.
In terms of negativity, Town should not let Stuart Armstrong become positive. He is a fine player, but can become dispirited if matters don't go his way. Also, Carlos (Charlie) Arcaraz can be a driving force, but he can similarly become dispirited, if matched for pace and muscularity. I suggest this David Kasumu has a role, if fit.
In reality, I can't see these defensive mechanisms being followed, and nor can I imagine we can provide a positive threat.
Son of Saintly and I normally come up to Huddersfield for these matches, but we can't make it this time.
Come on Town, disprove my negativity!
