Jay Rodriguez to miss Southampton's EFL Cup clash

20 September 2016 12:29

Southampton will be without Jay Rodriguez when they host Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup.

Striker Rodriguez is sidelined by a groin complaint so Charlie Austin, who came off the bench to score the winner against Swansea on Sunday, could start.

Youngsters Harrison Reed and Lloyd Isgrove are in contention but Sofiane Boufal and Jeremy Pied are still out with knee injuries.

Provisional squad: Forster, McCarthy, Soares, Van Dijk, Fonte, Bertrand, Davis, Romeu, Clasie, Tadic, Redmond, Austin, Reed, Targett, Yoshida, Hojbjerg, Ward-Prowse, Long, Martina, Isgrove.
