Team News

Southampton
Man City
  • Maya Yoshida is available again after missing Southampton's midweek win through suspension.
  • Jan Bednarek is unlikely to feature after suffering a head injury against Swansea on Tuesday night.
  • Steven Davis is expected to sit out Southampton's final game of the season, but Mario Lemina has a chance of making the squad.
  • Few changes are expected from Mark Hughes on Sunday against his former club.
  • Pep Guardiola made several changes to the side that beat Brighton 4-1 on Wednesday night, giving starts to the likes of Claudio Bravo and Yaya Toure.
  • The Manchester City boss may recall on his usual starting XI on Sunday as the Premier League champions look to finish their final game of the season with a bang.
  • David Silva returned to Spain for personal reasons during the week, but it remains unclear whether he will also miss City's last game of the season.
  • Benjamin Mendy will be desperate to start against Southampton in order to prove his fitness to France boss Didier Deschamps ahead of the 2018 World Cup.

Prediction

  • Barring a dramatic goal swing on the final day of the season, Southampton have all but secured their top-flight status for another season. Despite that, Mark Hughes must ensure his players know the threat of relegation is still alive to prevent any complacency creeping in against the free-scoring Premier League champions.
  • Even though Manchester City have won the league already, they can still become the first side in Premier League history to break the 100-point mark. Only a win on Sunday is good enough for Pep Guardiola's side to manage that.
  • Southampton have enjoyed some success at home to City in recent years but Hughes will not record a win against his former side on Sunday.
