Southampton take their strong recent form on the road this Saturday for a Championship fixture against Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground. Russell Martin's side have won their last two matches, scoring seven goals in the process, and sit ninth in the table with ten points from seven games.
Their attack has been potent, with Cyle Larin netting a brace in the 4-1 victory over Bristol City last weekend. That performance took the Canadian striker's tally to seven goals in seven league appearances this season, making him the division's joint-top scorer. The only fitness concern for the Saints is midfielder Caspar Jander, who remains sidelined with a muscle injury.
Wrexham's recent struggles
Wrexham, promoted last season, have found life tougher in the second tier and currently occupy 19th place. Their last outing was a heavy 6-0 defeat away to West Ham, though they did manage a creditable 1-1 draw with Burnley at home prior to that. Southampton will be confident of extending their unbeaten run to six games against a side that has conceded 12 goals in its last five matches.
With the squad in good health aside from Jander, Martin is expected to name a similar lineup to the one that dismantled Bristol City. That side featured Daniel Peretz in goal, with a back four of James Bree, Nathan Wood-Gordon, Nico Schlotterbeck, and Ryan Manning shielding him. The creative axis of Finn Azaz, Kuryu Matsuki, and Léo Scienza will look to supply Larin once more.
