'At least one' of Stewart and Scienza to be declared fit for Oxford clash
SAINTS head coach Tonda Eckert is expecting "at least one" of Ross Stewart and Leo Scienza to be fit and available against Oxford United.
The St Mary's side host 22nd in the Championship as they round off a continuous block of league and FA Cup games since mid-November.
Stewart and Scienza missed the last two outings, having been substituted early with muscle tightness and a groin tweak respectively at West Brom.
But Eckert expects one of them to be able to play a part in the Oxford clash, as Saints look to put right a 2-1 defeat to the minnows on Boxing Day.
