It’s a proper six-pointer between 18th place Southampton and 16th place West Ham United at St. Mary’s on Saturday (Watch live at 12:30 p.m. ET on NBC and online via NBCSports.com).
[ STREAM: Southampton v. West Ham ]
Saints are coming off a 2-1 loss at Newcastle that has them in the Bottom Three, while West Ham’s latest set back saw them toss aside a lead versus Arsenal and totally lose its way in a 3-1 loss.
Manuel Pellegrini is under fire, and the Irons boss will use both Michail Antonio and Sebastien Haller in a bid to get the former and his overall attack back in form.
In-form Danny Ings again starts for Saints, and will attempt to push his goal streak to six matches and season haul to 10.
