Southampton vs West Brom Team News: In-Form Manolo Gabbiadini Starting
16:39, 21 Oct 2017
Two of the least exciting teams in Premier League football clash in our evening kick-off today.
Both sides are in mid-to-lower table form and both are struggling for goals of late.
Manolo Gabiadini has been anonymous for a long time for Southampton but burst into life last time against Newcastle and notched a brace. He starts this evening up top with Shane Long and Dusan Tadic in support.
Tony Pulis had a few headaches in the build-up to this one with both his first choice goalkeepers, Boaz Myhill and Scott Carson, both had injury issues but Carson has recovered well enough to start. Former Saints man Jay Rodriguez starts for The Baggies.
