Adam Lallana - Southampton: The Saints captain, 24, has impressed in the top flight this season in tough matches against the two Manchester clubs. Scored 11 goals in 41 appearances in the Championship last season from midfield (Getty Images)
Adam Lallana is Southampton's only absentee for tomorrow's Barclays Premier League match with Sunderland.
The Saints captain suffered a knee injury in the defeat of Reading and, while coy on the severity of the complaint, manager Nigel Adkins confirmed he will not be available at St Mary's tomorrow.
The south coast club can, though, welcome back goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga from a shoulder injury, while Frazer Richardson and Richard Chaplow are also back in contention.
Provisional squad: K Davis, Gazzaniga, Boruc, Richardson, Butterfield, Stephens, Clyne, Fox, Shaw, Yoshida, Hooiveld, Fonte, Reeves, Ward-Prowse, Do Prado, Cork, Chaplow, De Ridder, Ramirez, Schneiderlin, S Davis, Puncheon, Lee, Lambert, Rodriguez, Mayuka.
