Team News: Southampton make three changes for Europa League tie at FC Midtjylland

Saints make three changes at Midtjylland

Ronald Koeman has made three changes for Southampton ahead of their Europa League playoff second-leg clash with FC Midtjylland at the MCH Arena.

James Ward-Prowse, Jay Rodriguez and Cuco Martina start for the Saints in Denmark, taking the place of Cedric Soares, Victor Wanyama and Sadio Mane.

Meanwhile, the hosts make a total of seven changes from their Superliga game at Esbjerg, as they look to make the most of their away goal from the first leg.

Midtjylland secured a 1-1 draw at St Mary's on August 20 as Rodriguez needed a second-half penalty to overturn a Tim Sparv strike on the stroke of half time.

Midtjylland: Dahlin, Nielsen, Lauridsen, Hansen, Sviachenko, Sparv, Andersson, Royer, Poulsen, Sisto, Rasmussen Subs: Andersen, Jensen, Romer, Hassan, Olsson, Onuachu, Pusic

Southampton: Stekelenburg, Martina, Fonte, Caulker, Yoshida, Targett, Romeu, S. Davis, Ward-Prowse, Pelle, Rodriguez Subs: K. Davis, Cedric, Long, Mane, Tadic, Reed, Juanmi
