Yukinari Sugawara and Kyle Walker-Peters will start as the wing-backs. They will look to keep things tight at the back and hit Fulham on the break. As for the midfield unit, Mateus Fernandes will start alongside Flynn Downes, and they will look to add physicality and defensive cover to the side.
Kamaldeen Sulemana will start alongside Tyler Dibling in the wide areas, and they will look to create goalscoring opportunities for their teammates. Finally, Cameron Archer will lead the line for Southampton vs Fulham on Saturday.
Fulham
Marco Silva will be without Reiss Nelson due to a thigh injury. Fulham are likely to shape up in a 4-2-3-1 formation vs Southampton, with Bernd Leno in goal.

Issa Diop will start alongside Joachim Andersen at the heart of the defence.

Southampton vs Fulham Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
The two sides have clashed on 80 occasions in the past. Southampton were victorious 30 times, Fulham have 24 wins to their name, while 26 games ended in draws.
Their most recent clash came in December 2024 when they shared the spoils in a goalless stalemate in the reverse fixture.
Five of the last seven head-to-head games have produced less than three goals and also saw at least one side fail to find the back of the net.
Five of Southampton's last six league games have witnessed goals at both ends.
Fulham have won just one of their last 22 visits to this stadium, losing 15. Coincidentally, that win came on their most recent visit to St. Mary's in May 2023.
Prediction: Southampton 0-2 Fulham
Southampton will unsurprisingly enter Saturday's fixture as underdogs and firm favourites Fulham, who have scored in six of their last seven PL matches, will hope to have the clinical touch in front of goal that they lacked in the reverse fixture.
None of Fulham's last 13 league games have ended as a draw (W6 L7) and we expect this run to continue as Silva's men should have enough to get the better of a frail Saints backline this time around.
