Saints are set to be backed by 4,000 supporters for their Capital One Cup quarter-final against Sheffield United next month.

Ronald Koeman’s side will face the League One club at Bramall Lane on Tuesday, December 16, when they will be aiming to book a place in the last four.

Saints have secured a third allocation of tickets for the game, taking their total expected following to just over 4,000.

Tickets cost £17 for adults, £15 for adult season ticket holders, £10 for over-60s, young adults and students, and £5 for under-17s.
