Seventeen shots for Southampton but only five on target and just the one goal.

Walter Mazzarri has got rid of his suit jacket. The Watford boss is pacing his technical area and is constantly looking at his watch. Two minutes left.

Four minutes of added time.

One-way traffic, as it has been for most of this half, with just a few minutes remaining. If Watford emerge from this with a point they will be celebrating it like a win.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg has time and space outside the Watford area but blazes over the bar. Another Southampton chance wasted. 

Watford's defence is under severe pressure in the closing stages. Can the 10 men visitors hold out?

Substitute Ben Watson, who has only been on for 12  minutes, is sent off after being shown a straight red card for bringing down Shane Long as he advanced on the Watford goal.

Brilliant work by the hard working Nordin Amrabat ends with a low cross right across the six-yard area but there is no yellow shirt to turn it over the line. Big chance for Watford.

Southampton are on the charge. Can they get a second?

This is turning into a cracker.

Both teams are going for it and there's chances at both ends. 

Southampton go close to taking the lead for the first time as Steven Davis gets a head to Dusan Tadic's free-kick and it lands on the roof of the net.

First change of the game. No surprise it's Southampton who make it. They need to do something quickly to get back into this.

James Ward-Prowse is replaced by new signing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

So close to a second Watford goal as Jose Holebas gets behind the Saints defence and his curling cross-shot narrowly fails to find the net.

Strong challenge by Valon Behrami sends Dusan Tadic sprawling and brings a promising Southampton move to an end. More frustration for the hosts. 

Lively start to the new half by the hosts who are pushing forward. They've won only their second corner while Nathan Redmond narrowly failed to connect with a cross.

Watford get us back under way.

Southampton won their last four Premier League games of last season to seal sixth spot in the table. They are going to have to step it up in the second half.

They've had seven shots but it's been a frustrating start to the season so far.

Here come the teams...

Eddie Howe is at St Mary's Stadium to check out the action. His Bournemouth side entertain Manchester United on Sunday.
