Kyle Walker-Peters - Could play Tuesday Walker-Peters (hamstring) is available for selection in Tuesday's EFL Cup match against Lincoln City, his club have announced.

Impact Walker-Peters has been out for the past two months but is on track to be fit going forward. He started in 11 matches prior to his injury and when Juan Larios and Valentino Livramento return, there will be great depth at right-back for Saints.

Valentino Livramento - Won't play Tuesday Livramento (knee) won't be available for Tuesday's EFL Cup match against Lincoln City.

Impact Livramento is almost back from a torn ACL suffered in April but needs at least another week to work on his fitness. The league will resume Dec. 26 against Brighton and it's uncertain if he'll be ready by then. When fit, Livramento should be an expected starter if he can compete with Juan Larios for minutes.

Mohammed Salisu - Scores goal Salisu scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 3-2 win versus South Korea.

Impact Currently, Salisu is a part of Ghana's 2022 World Cup team. He scored during open play a few seconds after the country attempted its first of multiple free kicks Monday. The goal redeemed his inconsistent output on defense, as Salisu was one of two central defenders responsible for failing to prevent two goals scored by Cho Gue-Sung.

Alex McCarthy - Backup option this season McCarthy is yet to appear in the Premier League this season as he is second in Southampton's goalkeeper depth chart.

Impact McCarthy has been an unused substitute in almost all of Southampton's league matches while summer arrival Gavin Bazunu has taken over the starting job between the posts.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gavin Bazunu - Four saves in rout Bazunu made four saves in Saturday's 3-1 loss versus Liverpool.

Impact Bazunu did well against the impressive Liverpool attack, stopping four of seven shots. The goalkeeper has had largely mixed results and a shaky defense in front of him have limited Bazunu to just one clean sheet in 15 starts heading into the World Cup break.

James Ward Prowse - Assists Saturday Ward-Prowse assisted once to go with three crosses (three accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 defeat against Liverpool.

Impact Ward-Prowse provided one assist during Saturday's loss, creating just the single chance. The midfielder was given limited chances by a stout Liverpool defense, sending in just three crosses, his second lowest tally of the campaign. Ward-Prowse remains an elite option for Southampton based off of his volume on all set-pieces, but won't travel to Qatar with the England national team, largely due to his poor form in the first half of the Premier League season.
