Southampton head coach Tonda Eckert is optimistic that his team can keep their impressive home form at the special St Mary's throughout the Championship season. The Saints have begun the campaign strongly at home, winning all three of their league matches against Stoke City, Millwall, and Swansea City.

Eckert emphasized that St Mary's holds a special place for his team and needs to remain special throughout the season. He praised the pitch's excellent condition, noting that it allows them to play the football they excel at. Despite facing top-ranked opponents, Eckert stressed the importance of showing Southampton's identity and staying true to St Mary's during the match.
Currently, Southampton stands in 12th place in the table, having won three games and drawn twice, with two more matches remaining. The team's next Championship fixture is against Bristol City at St Mary's on Saturday.
