Saints clash with AFC Bournemouth at St Mary's on Saturday 1st April is nearing a sell out as the home fans prepare to watch their team at the stadium for the first time in almost two months.
As expected the Bournemouth game despite being a late kick off on TV will sell out with the only question being when ? That will soon be answered with only a couple of hundred tickets still left in the home areas as of Thursday afternoon with nine days still left before the clash.
Most areas only have single seats left or at best two together although the Chapel Stand still has a few clusters of seats yet to be sold mainly at the very back or front.
This could mean that the game could sell out in the next 24 hours, so anyone who is planning on going had better get their skates on as this sentence will be the nearest that we get to our real derby game for a while.
Also selling well is the visit of Crystal Palace a few days later.
