JUST a few days on from their dramatic 2-1 win at Hull City, Saints are back in Championship action against Preston North End on Wednesday.

Russell Martin's side travel to Deepdale for their second of three games in eight days to face a Preston side currently sitting in fourth place.

Wednesday evening's fixture, which is the two side's first meeting since 2008-09, sees two teams that currently occupy places in the playoffs face off.

However, Ryan Lowe's team are without a win in five, a stark contrast to Southampton, who are currently on a four-game unbeaten run. 

How can I watch it on TV?

Selected for TV coverage, the fixture will kick-off at 7:45PM on Sky Sports Arena with coverage starting from 7:40PM on Wednesday, October 25. 

The game will also be available to watch through the club's streaming service Saints Play, where viewers can access the live stream for £10.

Goals and highlights will be shown on ITV4 at 11PM on Wednesday, with a re-run on ITV (main channel) later in the evening.

How can I listen to commentary?

The club's official channel, Saints Play, will provide audio commentary for a fee. A monthly audio pass is priced at £4.49.

Local listeners can catch radio commentary through BBC Radio Solent on DAB or 96.1MHz.
