A half-decent attempt from Sofiane Boufal lands safely in the hands of Mat Ryan.

Saints need to match the zip that Brighton have found in the second half.

Another dinked cross in from Pascal Gross on the left, but another Fraser Forster save follows.

Now Southampton try and get forward, Boufal sends Ryan Bertrand on the march but the ball rolls away from him and out of play.

This is a much, much better game now. Far more open and expressive.

Another gorgeous move from Pascal Gross. He's done really well so far.

This time Fraser Forster gets his hands to his ball in.

Now Glenn Murray and Wesley Hoedt have a coming together and both get shown a yellow card.

Ryan Bertrand backs into Anthony Knockaert and gifts Brighton a free-kick out wide on the right.

Fraser Forster comes rushing out to stop it arriving on the head of Dale Stephens, who's waiting in the box.

Brighton have to be solid for the next 10 minutes, they’ll come at us. But what a ball by Pascal Gross and header from Murray. But I'm asking questions about Fraser Forster.

Love you lot. Keep them coming!

Brighton are buoyed now - both on and off the pitch.

Bruno has acres of space to manoeuvre on the right and his cross is blocked by Ryan Bertrand.

Pascal Gross then does some fancy footwork, balanced on the sideline, to send the ball in but Glenn Murray can't get anything on it.

Southampton go on the march immediately and earn a corner.

It's whipped in by James Ward-Prowse but the Saints can't make it count.

The angry Brighton fan is at it again.

"PRESSURE. PRESSURE THEM. IT'S EASY."

Is he ok? Someone check on him.

Southampton continue to pester Brighton.

Goalkeeper Mat Ryan is sent into action by Dusan Tadic this time.

The corner is headed out and into the path of Sofiane Boufal, who takes a punt at goal and it's deflected wide for another corner.

That comes to nothing.

Dale Stephens catches Manolo Gabbiadini and Southampton earn a free-kick from way out.

James Ward-Prowse takes AGES to take it as the big men advance from the back.

It's whipped in well but Lewis Dunk heads it out for a corner.

Back under way at the Amex!

Alex Storey: Can #bbcfootball, external live text have a “Footballer Game Shows” feature soon? I’ve just come up with ‘It’s a Knockeart’ and I’m smug about it!

During a moment of quiet in my old office in Bristol a few years ago, I had a good think about a few of these. The only one I could come up with at the time was "Weale of Fortune", named after former Yeovil goalkeeper Chris Weale.

Or Weale or no Weale.

Think you can do better than that (pffft) then get in touch on #bbcfootball.

The heat maps below describe how chilly it's been for both keepers.

Very little goalmouth action.

However, we were treated to a wonderful free-kick from Jame Ward-Prowse which resulted in Southampton's opener.

One of them has a brand new manager, the other a caretaker in charge. Leicester, under new boss Claude Puel, host Everton, led by Ronald Koeman's at-present temporary successor David Unsworth.

Neither man is new to football-minded folk in this country. Puel, you will probably remember, was Southampton boss as recently as last season, when he led them to eighth and the League Cup final. His sacking yielded a mixed reaction, with some appreciative of the aforementioned achievements and others nay happy with his defensive style.

Unsworth was a no-nonsense centre-back during his playing days in the 1990s and 2000s, primarily for the club he is now managing. He has stepped up from the Under-23s and has made it pretty clear he would like the Toffees job on a permanent basis.

Meh.

Apart from the goal, nothing to write home about.

We can only hope for more in the second half.

Excellent defending from Bruno, who calmly chests the ball toward Brighton goalkeeper Mat Ryan after a looping ball comes in from right.

The same happens at the other end now, as Cedric Soares chests to Fraser Forster but the ball comes in a lot quicker and the Saints keeper has to nestle down on top of it to stop it rolling out.
