Southampton have been one of the most attractive teams to watch this year and many of their players hope to be given the chance to carry their good form over into the World Cup, but most of the intrigue around this match relates to their opponents. Will Ryan Giggs round off his brief reign with a victory? Will young James Wilson produce a display as superb as his midweek debut? If the visitors win at St Mary's and Tottenham Hostpur lose to Aston Villa, how will they react to qualifying for the Europa League? Paul Doyle
