Oriol Romeu - Could be option Tuesday Romeu (ankle) could be an option for Tuesday's match against Leeds, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl. "Oriol has an opportunity to play. We must handle it carefully but I'd li...

Impact Romeu hasn't played since February because of an ankle injury and there's little reason for him to be pushed into the squad with little to play for. At best, he'll be an option off the bench over the final two matches since his fitness probably isn't at a level where he could go 90 minutes.

Jan Bednarek - Good for Tuesday Bednarek (heel) will be available for Tuesday's match against Leeds, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl. "Jan Bednarek has no problems anymore with his heel. He trained yesterda...

Impact Bednarek missed the match over the weekend, so it's surprising that he "has no problems." While Southampton have nothing to play for, it's likely he'll move back into the starting XI against Leeds, taking the spot of either Mohammed Salisu or Jack Stephens.

Impact Bednarek misses out Saturday after suffering an ankle injury midweek. It doesn't sound serious and there's a chance he's back in the XI Tuesday against Leeds. In his place, Mohammed Salisu is starting alongside Jannik Vestergaard at center-back in a favorable matchup against Fulham.

Impact On a short week, there's a chance Bednarek is rested Saturday and that's probably the best decision for him, especially since Southampton have little to play for. If that's the case, Mohammed Salisu will probably come into the starting XI in a favorable matchup against Fulham.
