Swansea will take on Southampton in the Championship at the Swansea Stadium on Saturday. The Saints are third in the league standings, 10 points behind league leaders Leicester City, whereas the hosts are down in 15th place.
Swansea have only lost one out of their last six games across all competitions and that should give them confidence for this one. However, that only defeat came against Southampton and that game ended 0-5, with Ryan Fraser grabbing a brace.
Southampton are unbeaten in their last 20 games across all competitions and will be extremely confident of extending that run. They have won six out of their last seven matches. Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
