Southampton play host to Oldham Athletic at St. Marys on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Saints are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 3 of the 20 games.
The last time the two teams met at Southampton was well over fifteen years ago, back in March 1994, as the visitors ran out cosy 1-3 winners in a Premiership match.
