Southampton will be aiming to arrest their poor form in the Championship when they welcome Leeds United to St. Mary's on Saturday.
After a four-game unbeaten start to their return to the second tie, the Saints now find themselves on a four-game losing run after a 2-1 loss at Middlesbrough.
On the other hand, Leeds are also a newly relegated side here, but Daniel Farke's men are three points clear of their opponents thanks to a 3-0 win over Watford at the weekend.

Team news & squads
Southampton team news
With defender Jack Stephens unavailable for selection, Man City loanee Taylor Harwood-Bellis could partner Jan Bednarek at the heart of defense, with Kyle Walker-Peters and Ryan Manning deployed as the two full-backs.
Former Sunderland forward Ross Stewart is yet to feature for the club this season on account of injury, as Southampton boss Russell Martin should again look up to Che Adams to lead the line of attack alongside Adam Armstrong and Samuel Edozie.
Meanwhile, a shuffle in the middle could see either Joe Aribo or Stuart Armstrong's inclusion in place of Shea Charles and alongside Flynn Downes and Will Smallbone.

Leeds team news
Willy Gnonto is ruled out through injury, joining Stuart Dallas, Djed Spence, Junior Firpo and Patrick Bamford in the treatment room.
So Farke might be looking at fielding an unchanged lineup from the Watford win, although Joe Rodon is back from suspension here. However, Pascal Struijk and Liam Cooper may keep their place at the back following a clean sheet in the last game.
Glen Kamara and Archie Gray may compete for a spot in midfield alongside Ethan Ampadu, while Georginio Rutter continues up front with Joel Piroe in the number 10 role.
With Crysencio Summerville on the right side, Daniel James should continue to fill in for Gnoto, but with Jaidon Anthony also pushing for a start.
Leeds possible XI: Meslier; Ayling, Struijk, Cooper, Byram; Ampadu, Kamara; Summerville, Piroe, James; Rutter
