Southampton will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 2-2 result against Preston North End last time out. In that game they had 72% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Preston North End who had 12 attempts and 5 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Russell Martin will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their the last 13 games at St. Mary's Stadium.
With an unbeaten league tally of 5 games from 6, their recent form should be viewed positively, especially with 3 wins thrown in.
Adam Armstrong will be feeling confident about adding his name to the scoresheet once more at St. Mary's Stadium, having notched up 5 goals for Southampton in their last 6 league matches at home.

The Birmingham City players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Hull City recently, that ended in a 2-0 defeat. They achieved 45% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Hull City's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games away from home.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Lukas Jutkiewicz will be hoping to create problems for Southampton in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Birmingham City.
Southampton vs. Birmingham City Head to head
Nothing to write home about from their previous encounter, with no goals and both teams having to settle for a share of the points.
In their previous 3 away games at Southampton, The Blues have managed to score a goal in each match. We have seen plenty of goals from The Saints when they play at home against Birmingham. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 9 goals, which is an average of 3 goals per game. When Birmingham visit The Saints in the league, goals tend to happen, with 6 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2 goals per match.
Southampton manager Russell Martin has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Juan Larios (Unknown), Jack Stephens (Calf) and Ross Stewart (Achilles tendon) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Birmingham City Injury News
Wayne Rooney has a number of injury concerns in his Birmingham squad to contend with: Keshi Anderson (Hamstring), Lee Buchanan (Ankle), George Hall (Hamstring), Ethan Laird (Hamstring) and Tyler Roberts (Calf)
