Chelsea will make the trip to the South Coast to face bottom-of-the-table Southampton in the Premier League on Wednesday.

Enzo Maresca's men are up in third, only being denied second place due to alphabetical order, given their identical record to Arsenal, following a 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Sunday.
