Southampton PL Cup game postponed

Written by Zoe Rundle

Wednesday's Premier League Cup game away at Southampton has been postponed. 

The Cherries were due to travel to AFC Totton for an 11am kick-off, after the initial fixture was abandoned in late November due to extreme fog. 

The decision comes after members of the Southampton squad contracted Covid-19 and will subsequently need to follow a procedure of self-isolation over the coming days. 

Shaun Cooper's side currently sit third in Group A, a point and a place behind Arsenal with a game in hand. 

They most recently dispatched front-runners West Brom at Vitality Stadium with an impressive 4-0 scoreline to climb clear of Southampton. 

Once a new date for the fixture is finalised, all the information will be posted on afcb.co.uk.
