Saints will travel to Chelsea on Wednesday, January 16 - either for a rearranged Premier League match or an FA Cup replay.
The clubs were scheduled to meet in a league encounter at Stamford Bridge last month, but the fixture had to be postponed because of the Blues' Club World Cup commitments.
The match has now been provisionally rearranged for January 16. However, should the clubs draw in their FA Cup third round tie at St Mary's tomorrow, the contest will instead become a cup replay and a new date will have to be found for the league match.
