Arsenal Vs Southampton Today (3:15 Pm) Live by SamuelTurner(m): 9:32am On Apr 08, 2018
Everything you need to know ahead of the Premier
League match at Emirates Stadium on Sunday
afternoon
Arsenal's upturn in form has given them a realistic
chance of finishing the season strongly, even if
manager Arsene Wenger admits that finishing in the
top four remains unlikely.
The Gunners have won their last five matches in all
competitions and their imperious home form has
seen them lose just two of their last 23 league
matches at Emirates Stadium.
Relegation-threatened Southampton have recorded
just one win in their last 18 league games, but may
take hope from their surprise 2-0 victory over the
Gunners last season.
Wenger's side look all but certain to reach the
Europa League semi-finals after an impressive 4-1
win over CSKA Moscow on Thursday and could
decide to rest a number of players ahead of the
return leg in Russia next week.
David Ospina has been ruled out for two to three
weeks with an ankle injury sustained in training on
Wednesday.
Armenia international Henrikh Mkhitaryan misses
out with a slight knee problem but should be fit for
the return leg against CSKA next Thursday.
Spanish midfielder Santi Cazorla remains a long-
term absentee with an Achilles injury.
Wenger could make several changes to freshen up
his team ahead of next Thursday's Europa League
quarter-final second leg against CSKA Moscow.
The likes of Alex Iwobi and Sead Kolasinac could
start, while it's possible that Calum Chambers or
Rob Holding will fill in for Laurent Koscielny with
the Frenchman carefully managing his chronic
Achilles problem.
Mohamed Elneny could also start in midfield if
Wenger opts to rest one of Jack Wilshere, Aaron
Ramsey or Granit Xhaka.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is expected to return
upfront and could play alongside Alexandre
Lacazette after the Frenchman insisted that they
can play in the same team together.

Southampton have a full squad to choose from with Oriol Romeu likely to come in for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Steven Davis for Manolo Gabbiadini. Newly-appointed manager Mark Hughes was tasked with keeping Southampton in the Premier League but defeat in his last match against West Ham has pushed them further adrift of the safety zone. He won his first match as manager of the Saints by beating Wigan in the FA Cup quarter-final, but the 3-0 defeat against the Hammers once again emphasised how difficult it will be to secure his side's top-flight status for another season. Charlie Austin is the club's top scorer with six goals to his name so far this season.
