Southampton vs Hull City
Premier League
Today, 15:00 [BST]
St. Mary's Stadium, Southampton

Southampton defender Sam McQueen is available to face Hull after recovering from a minor groin injury.

Charlie Austin and Matt Targett have returned to full training after long-term injuries but it is too soon for them to be involved in the first team.

Hull striker Oumar Niasse is available after the red card he received against Watford was rescinded.

Defender Omar Elabdellaoui remains absent with a back problem and may not play again this season.

Southampton manager Claude Puel: "It's important to take points because we want to finish in the first half of the table.

"Hull City will be a difficult game, we know, it's important to have this good concentration in this game.

"I think it will be just as difficult as the last games against Chelsea and Manchester City. Perhaps it will be more difficult."

Hull head coach Marco Silva on away form: "We need to change, of course we need to change.

"We analysed the last game like normal, and I think it's clear to me and I hope it's clear for our players what we need to do differently.

"We need to keep focus always and play with the same confidence we do at home. We need to keep focus, we conceded goals away on the counter-attack."
