Southampton vs Chelsea LIVE!

The Blues head to the south coast this evening looking to keep pace in the Premier League title race, despite Enzo Maresca claiming his team are not a contender. The manager marked six months in the job yesterday and has taken Chelsea to joint-second in the table, level on points, goal difference, goal scored and every other metric with Arsenal.

Chelsea may be ahead of schedule, with Maresca saying on Tuesday that the Bles “in the next five to 10 years will be one of the teams - or the team - that is going to dominate English football”. More immediately, they will be confident of heading back to London tonight with another three points as they take on the worst team in the league.

Southampton could scarcely be in poorer shape as they are without up to 11 players this evening. Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Tyler Dibling and Flynn Downes are all suspended, while Lesley Ugochukwu cannot face his parent club. Third-choice goalkeeper Joe Lumley should play.
