Southampton (3-2-3, 12 points) will try to extend their two-game winning run in the 2015-2016 Premier League season against the visiting Leicester City (4-1-3, 15 points) at the St. Mary's Stadium on October 17, Saturday.
The Saints are playing superbly as of late with convincing 3-1 wins over Swansea City and Chelsea in their last two outings.
Steven Davis, Sadio Mané, and Graziano Pellè torched the defending champs with a goal each at the 43rd, 60th, and 72nd minutes to move up in the top ten of the league table, as per BBC Sport.
Chelsea's Brazilian winger Willian actually drew first blood at the 10th minute with an improbable curling free-kick from the left side before Davis started Southampton's rally right before halftime.
Meanwhile, the fifth-running Foxes pulled off a 2-1 victory over newly-promoted squad Norwich City at the Carrow Road last October 3, as reported by NBC Sports.
Resident scorers Jamie Vardy and Jeff Schlupp provided the goals for Claudio Ranieri's squad at the 28th and 47th minutes while the Canaries' striker Dieumerci Mbokani put his team on the board at the 68th.
Norwich City tried to rally in the end, but the Blue Army was able to deflect all of their attacks to hang on with the win.
Leicester is anticipated to face a difficult challenge against Southampton as the Saints carry the momentum of their previous win versus Chelsea in the match, but Ranieri's boys will prevail.
The predicted result is a close 2-1 win for Leicester City.
