Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of Southampton v Fulham. Hoping to carry forward the momentum from Monday’s 3-1 win against Palace, Southampton welcome Scott Parker’s side to St Mary’s following Fulham’s relegation earlier this week. Kick off 15:00 BST.

Ward-Prowse wins Southampton a freekick after he's taken down in his own half.

And we're underway...Carvalho kicks things off for Fulham

Five minutes until things kick off at St Mary's! The rain has cleared and the sun is shining down on the south coast stadium. Saints will be looking to finish the season off strong, whilst Scott Parker has said the remaining games are all about "passion and pride" for the players.

Will Fulham be the first to break the deadlock at St Mary's today?

Monday’s 2-0 defeat to Burnley marked a sad day for Fulham fans as relegation to the Championship was confirmed. Scott Parker said his main focus now is bouncing back next season and learning from this campaign’s mistakes. With the pressure undoubtedly off Fulham, we could see a completely different display from Parker’s side who have struggled in front of goal for most of the season.

Southampton will be looking to put a smile on the face of the fans that are watching from home today. The return of top goal scorer Ings on Monday saw Saints secure their first win in five games against Crystal Palace.

Saints haven't conceded in 6 of 7 meetings with Fulham...can Alex McCarthy keep a clean sheet on home turf today?

Scott Parker makes four changes to his Fulham side, with youngster Cavaleiro making his premiere league debut, and former Saints starlet Harrison Reed coming into the starting line up.

Ralph Hasenhuttl makes two changes to his side today: McCarthy replaces Forster in goal and Salisu takes the place of Bednarek, who failed his fitness test following a recent ankle injury.
