Southampton expect to have leading scorer Danny Ings available again after a hamstring problem for the Premier League match against Everton.

Forward Charlie Austin, captain Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and defender Yan Valery have all completed their respective suspensions following the midweek FA Cup replay defeat by Derby.

Defender Maya Yoshida is on international duty with Japan at the Asian Cup, while left-back Ryan Bertrand (back), midfielder Mario Lemina (abdominal) and striker Michael Obafemi (hamstring) continue their recovery.

Provisional squad: McCarthy, Vestergaard, Stephens, Targett, Bednarek, Valery, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Armstrong, Redmond, Long, Gunn, Soares, Elyounoussi, Slattery, Gallagher, Austin, Hojbjerg, Ings.
