SHF Vs SOU Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Two clubs in dire need of a win take on each other.
Although they still have a gruelling and bumpy road to traverse before they can launch a serios claim to staving off relegation, Sheffield United’s 1-0 win the last time around emoted towards embers of a flickering fight in the club’s ranks.
Recording only their fourth win of the season and their first in the wake of a five match losing spree, Sheffield United showed that they are not completely out of the league yet. The performance was a gritty and gusty showing, traits which the side will be looking to emulate.
And with their opponents bereft of a win in eight matches on a spin, the hosts will be quietly confident of making it two wins on the bounce.
SHF Vs SOU Fantasy Probable Winner
Although Southampton are not relegation candidates at the moment, it wont be long before the side is spoken in the same breath as the worst sides in the league. On a two match losing spree, we envision Southampton doing just about enough to pluck the one point from this outing.

Goal-Keeper
Our set of picks for the forthcoming outing begin with the selection of Aaron Ramsdale after he swept everything the opposition threw at him under the mat the last time around.
Defenders
The tenacious Ethan Ampadu and Enda Stevens will be slotting in next to him. Where Southampton have failed to score in their last two defeats, Sheffield United on the other hand helped themselves to a cleansheet the last time around.
Southampton will also feature a duo in this slot. The club is against the worst attacking team in the league, one against which it can easily pull off a shut down to see both Jan Bednarek and Jannik Vestergaard feature for us.
Midfielders
He’s failed to score and assist in a long time but despite that James Ward-Prowse who has the five goals and five assists has had a telling effect on his side’s attacks.
Stuart Armstrong’s ability to work his way past tight spaces sees him form the one-two of picks from the visiting team. The hosts on the other hand see us opt for John Fleck, their top assist provider with the two layups and Oliver Norwood.
Strikers
Both the clubs will see their leading scorers be inducted in this slot of our team. We begin with the home side’s David McGoldrick who has the 6 goals in his kitty.
Southampton’s Danny Ings meanwhile as ever features for us owing to his 8 goals and 3 assists.
Captain And Vice-Captain
His 10 goal contributions see James captain our side while Ings is the vice-captain.
