Stephens has a goal and three assists in ten matches, while Southampton’s upcoming fixtures are Burnley (H), Aston Villa (H), West Ham (a), Newcastle (H), Norwich (a).

🌟 Mina/Holgate EVE, £5.3m/£4.2m

Both look a dangerous in the opposition box – Yerry Mina scored twice in the win at Watford, while Mason Holgate has two assists in three games from set piece situations.
