James Ward Prowse - Creates four chances in loss Ward-Prowse made an interception and created four chances in Thursday's 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United.

Impact Ward-Prowse was his usual dangerous self on Thursday despite his side's loss to Newcastle, and he's created at least three chances in a single game four times in his last six Premier League matches since the start of February. He will want to do it again Sunday against Watford, which are 19th in the table.

Mohammed Salisu - Starting against Newcastle Salisu (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Thursday's match against Newcastle.

Impact Salisu is well enough to start Thursday and the hope is that he doesn't make the issue worse, as hamstring injuries aren't anything to play through. If fit, he's a nice boost to the side and what could be a bounce back spot, as Southampton have taken points in all but one home match this season.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mohammed Salisu - Could start Thursday Salisu (hamstring) is back in contention and could return to the starting XI Thursday against Newcastle, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Impact Southampton had problems without Salisu in the back last match, but it's unknown if he's well enough to start following a hamstring tweak. If able, he'd take the spot of Jack Stephens on the back line, but his hamstring issue is definitely worrying on a short week.

MARCH 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Walker-Peters - Gets minutes Saturday Walker-Peters played 32 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 4-0 loss against Aston Villa.

Impact Walker-Peters took over for Romain Perraud when the match was already out of hand Saturday, but the positive news is that he didn't suffer a bad hamstring injury. With a few days of training, he should be back in the XI Thursday against Newcastle, assuming he has no set backs.

Fraser Forster - Busy in rout Forster made five saves and three clearances during Saturday's 4-0 loss to Aston Villa.

Impact Forster made five saves and still conceded four goals as his midfield and defense were torn to shreds. Aston Villa dominated the match from start-to-finish and didn't give Forster any room to breathe. The keeper will face another tough clash, this time against Newcastle, on Thursday.

MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Valentino Livramento - Creates three chances Livramento created three chances and sent in three crosses during Saturday's 4-0 loss to Aston Villa.

Impact Livramento kept his good form going with yet another high-volume attacking performance. Unfortunately for the young full-back the midfield ahead of him were disjointed while the strikers seemed absent from the match. It was a poor showing all around for Southampton, and a Thursday match against Newcastle is unlikely to be easier.

MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Stuart Armstrong - Four shots in loss Armstrong shot four times (none on goal) during Saturday's 4-0 loss to Aston Villa.

Impact Armstrong shot four time, though they were ambitious shots that did little to trouble Emiliano Martinez. The midfielder has shown a penchant for taking any sight of goal as an invitation to shoot, but his shots have been less than lethal recently. Armstrong will hope to bounce back Thursday, against Newcastle.

MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

James Ward Prowse - Busy as always Ward-Prowse sent in nine crosses but failed to create any chances during Saturday's 4-0 loss to Aston Villa.

Impact Ward-Prowse was his usually busy self through the center of midfield, but failed to actually create much. The midfielder remains the heart-and-soul of Southampton, but poor performances like this tend to absolutely shut the team down. Next up for Ward-Prowse is a Thursday clash with the surging Newcastle.

MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Walker-Peters - On bench Saturday Walker-Peters (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Aston Villa.

Impact It looks like a tweaked hamstring for Walker-Peters, who is an emergency option Saturday with Romain Perraud starting in his place. The good news is that Walker-Peters didn't suffer a true hamstring injury and he could be back in the XI as soon as the team's next match.

MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mohamed Elyounoussi - Starting against Villa Elyounoussi (heel) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Aston Villa.

Impact Elyounoussi is well enough to start again Saturday after missing the midweek Cup match. It clearly was a minor issue, but it's still surprising that he's starting over Nathan Redmond. That said, Elyounoussi has been the guy, now making his fifth-straight start in league play.

MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mohamed Elyounoussi - Late test with heel problem Elyounoussi is considered a late test for Saturday's trip to Aston Villa because of a heel problem, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Impact Elyounoussi missed Wednesday's FA Cup match with the issue, so there's a real chance he misses Saturday. That said, this seems like a minor issue for now having gone a full 90 the last two league matches. If he can't go, Nathan Redmond is healthy again and ready to start if needed.

MARCH 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mohammed Salisu - Dealing with hamstring issue Salisu is considered a late test for Saturday's trip to Aston Villa because of a hamstring issue, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Impact This may only be a minor tweak for Salisu, who missed Wednesday's FA Cup match. He's been a rock for their back line, going a full 90 in the prior seven league matches following his red-card removal against Tottenham. If he can't go, Jack Stephens would likely start next to Jan Bednarek.
