Sports Mole previews Wednesday's Premier League clash between Southampton and Norwich City at St. Mary's.

Southampton will attempt to make it three straight wins in the Premier League when they welcome an improving Norwich City outfit to St. Mary's on Wednesday.

The match will also see the return of referee Mark Clattenburg to officiating duties after being cleared of racially abusing Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel during the Blues' clash with Manchester United earlier in the season.

The Saints have moved out of the relegation zone after securing back-to-back wins against Queens Park Rangers and Newcastle United and victory against the Canaries could move them as high as 15th.

Norwich, meanwhile, are unbeaten in their last five matches in the Premier League and could move into the top half of the table with another three points against the newly-promoted side.

Southampton will still be without Richard Chaplow for the clash and could name an unchanged side. Meanwhile, Norwich will not be able to call on Harry Kane once more and they too could name an unchanged outfit.

Recent form:

Southampton: LLDWW
Norwich: WWDWD

Possible lineups:

Southampton: Gazzaniga; Clyne, Fonte, Yoshida, Fox; Cork, Lallana, Schneiderlin; Ramirez, Lambert, Puncheon

Norwich: Ruddy; Barnett, Turner, Bassong, Garrido; Hoolahan, Snodgrass, Johnson, Pilkington; Holt, Jackson

Sports Mole says: 1-1
