Southampton team news: Hasenhuttl has quartet available for Everton clash
Southampton will host Everton in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon at the St. Mary’s Stadium.
Ralph Hasenhuttl will want to see a reaction from his side following their penalty shoot-out defeat to Derby County in the FA Cup on Wednesday night.
With The Saints in a rather precarious position, the Austrian boss will be able to focus solely on the top-flight competition and it appears he has been handed a significant boost ahead of the match with The Toffees.
According to a match preview on the club’s official website, Southampton will be able to call upon Danny Ings, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Charlie Austin and Yan Valery for the game.
Ings has recovered from his hamstring injury and has been involved with first-team training, whilst the trio are all available after serving their respective suspensions.
The Verdict:
Southampton will have been delighted to have the quartet mentioned available for their game against Everton.
Ings and Austin have been the Saints main threat going forward this season in a campaign that has been difficult to find goals.
Valery has been given a chance in defence – in which he has been making an impression – whilst Hojbjerg has played a key role in the midfield for Hasenhuttl’s side.
