Your support makes all the difference.Southampton host Manchester City in the FA Cup on Sunday and manager Ralph Hasenhuttl believes his team can cause an upset.
City are the favourites heading into the quarter-final due to their consistent form this season but Hasenhuttel says Southampton believe they can get the result.
“We have both had a week to prepare for this game and had some experience with (playing) each other,” he said.
“Hopefully we find a few good solutions for the game because we all know when you face one of the best teams in the world, you have to do a very good job and we are absolutely convinced that we can do that.”
But who lines-up for the teams? Here’s all you need to know.
When is it?
The match will kick-off at 3pm on Sunday, 20 March at St Mary’s Stadium.
How can I watch?
The fixture will be available to watch on BBC One or fans can stream it on BBC iPlayer.
Team news
Southampton only two first-team players aren’t available for the contest in Alex McCarthy and Lyanco. This means there will be a mix of youth and experience in the side to face City.
Man City will be without Ruben Dias and there is a doubt over Cole Palmer. But aside from those two players Pep Guardiola has free choice of his squad.
Confirmed line-ups
Southampton: Forster; Livramento, Stephens, Salisu, Walker-Peters; Romeu, S Armstrong, Ward-Prowse, Elyounoussi; Long, Armstrong.
Man City: Steffen; Walker, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo; De Bruyne, Rodri, Gundogan; Sterling, Jesus, Grealish.
Odds
Southampton - 17/2
Draw - 4/1
Man City - 3/10
Prediction
The tie will be tight match with some experienced players on both sides going toe-to-toe ahead of the international break. However, Man City’s form all season suggests they will come away with a win and if Southampton manage a victory it would be a big upset. Southampton 1-3 Man City.
