Eighth-place contenders are seeking to secure three points at home, as they welcome Pellegrini’s men to the St Mary's Stadium.
After the Saints won on the road against Aston Villa last Saturday out scoring them 4-2, they are hoping to maintain their momentum, as they face off against Manchester City. Southampton, with 54 points on the table, are striving to perform well against Aguero and Co. in order to continue their chase of clinching a guaranteed ticket for the Europa League next season.
Pellegrini’s boys will enter this match with passion and aggression, as they hope to remain in the top four positions to qualify for next season’s Champions League. In addition, the Sky Blues will try to achieve their goal of walking out of Southampton’s home with a victory in an attempt to boost their confidence before they travel to Madrid for their pivotal second leg semifinals.
Team news - who's fit and who's not?
Koeman’s men will head into this league game with a potentially fully equipped and healthy squad, as striker Graziano Pelle could return after being sidelined in last weekend's win at Aston Villa. Additionally, the home side will be anticipating the return of Charlie Austin, who suffered a hamstring injury back in early March.
The away side has dealt with a major injury blow from last week’s Champions League semifinal against Los Blancos, as playmaker David Silva will have to sit out of this clash after picking up a hamstring injury.
Defender Yaya Toure has returned to training after enduring a thigh injury but has not been called up for the matchday squad. However, midfielder Samir Nasri is fit and available for Sunday’s league fixture.
