Martina: We will fight again

Show/hide article…

Two late goals from the London side saw them overcome a first-half goal from Shane Long, earning them a 2-1 victory last March.

That came after Saints had also come from behind to prevail 3-1 at Stamford Bridge earlier in the campaign.

Martina thinks the latest contest between the two in-form teams could be equally well-fought.

"We know that they won last time out [in the Premier League] and it will be tough, but we need to stick to our gameplan and fight again, and make it difficult for them, and win.

"It’s always a good game. If you can perform well then that’s good. Last year, we won away and lost at home, but I think we can change that and win at home.”

Southampton vs Chelsea live goal and score updates

Show/hide article…

Tremendous ball from Alonso almost finds Hazard for a tap-in at the far post. Fonte slides in to deflect out for a corner, wonderful interception. Matic rises high to head towards goal at the corner, but the Serbian can’t keep it down. 50: José Fonte does well to divert a dangerous cross away from Hazard, before Nemanja Matic heads over for #CFC.… https://t.co/kha8hUmZNR — Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) Sun Oct 30 17:07:30 +0000 2016

We’re back underway at St Mary’s and Hazard is back to his scintillating best from the first half. A dribble from inside his own half, mixed with a one-two with Alonso, sees him advance the ball to the edge of the Saints’ area. Saints force the corner and defend it well, until Luiz stands up a ball to the back post, which Hazard keeps in, but can’t capitalise on. Southampton seem intent on getting something out of Chelsea’s right, but Pedro and Moses have done pretty well defe… https://t.co/nbzFQm1Yqp — Seb Stafford-Bloor (@SebSB) Sun Oct 30 16:51:01 +0000 2016

Redmond now moving down the right and he opts to take on Alonso, who is beaten for pace, but manages to force the ball out for a corner on the recovery. A lot of pushing at the corner with Van Dijk and Cahill going at it. Tadic with a super delivery again from a deep free-kick and it’s nodded back to Austin, who can’t keep his header down as Kante puts the pressure on.

Hazard on another fine run and drifts past Van Dijk easily. The Belgian’s shot is clean but moves back towards Forster, who takes it comfortable to his left. Costa and Hazard combine on the counter, but the former is not quick enough to get free of Van Dijk, who holds up the Spain international and forces the move out wide, which eventually fizzles out. Matic then slips Costa in with a lovely ball, but his shot is straight at Forster - Saints with a major let-off there. 39: Hazard finds space again, this time 20 yards from goal, but his curling effort is held by @FraserForster.… https://t.co/RvL4Vgz4nm — Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) Sun Oct 30 16:39:53 +0000 2016

Moses away down the right, found by Hazard’s wayward ball, that was actually intended for Pedro, who was free and ready to be sent through on goal. Moses dances past one challenge and fires towards goal, but it’s deflected wide. Chelsea with a few more chances in transitions now… 29: Dušan Tadić’s low free-kick is well saved by Thibaut Courtois, as #SaintsFC push for an equaliser. [0-1] https://t.co/Q7WRVI5DpZ — Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) Sun Oct 30 16:29:34 +0000 2016

Effective pressing from Pedro for Chelsea and Conte’s side are winning the ball back with great regularity. Romeu clatters Hazard, leading to a Blues free-kick that Saints clear well. Hazard, for the first time in years, now has a regular overlap in the form of Alonso.
