Southampton will seek to halt their slide down the Championship table as they welcome Preston to St Mary's on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
Saints are 20th, just three points above the drop-zone off the back of one win in their past 11 league games, culminating in last Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Blackburn, their second straight defeat.
After back-to-back defeats, North End's 3-2 come-from-behind win over Sheffield United at Deepdale took them back up to seventh, only outside the play-off places on goal difference.
Southampton are unbeaten across their past four league games against Preston North End (W3 D1), scoring 11 goals in total during that time.
