Hello and welcome to live coverage of the match between Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur.

Both clubs harbour European ambitions but have seen their form stall in recent weeks, Ronald Koeman's side have not won any of their last four - losing three of those - while Mauricio Pochettino's men have just one win in the last five, drawing three.

• Graziano Pelle returns to the starting after having an injection on his troublesome knee

• Third-choice goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga continues in goal as Maarten Stekelenburg has a toe injury

• Mousa Dembele passed a late fitness test and will start after an illness

• Clinton Njie, Ryan Masonand Alex Pritchard all remain sidelined for Spurs
