50'

Welbeck looking in the mood again and his shot deflects away for a corner. In it comes from Oxlade-Chamberlain and it falls to Maitland-Niles but he fires well over the bar.

48'

The Gunners have won their last five away FA Cup matches in a row - they have never won six consecutively in the competition's history. Looks like that's going to change this evening.

47'

No changes for either side as yet as Lucas is sent crashing to the ground. Oxlade-Chamberlain's free kick easily caught by Lewis.

2nd Half

46'

Back underway here at St. Mary’s and Southampton with it all to do.

HALF TIME: Southampton 0 Arsenal 3

45+1'

CHANCE! Martina sets it for Sims in the box from a few yards out but he can't get the ball out from under his feet and is tackled before he can shoot.

45'

There will be two additional minutes as the end of this half.

44'

A decent spell from Southampton but they need something to show. Even one goal back may raise the confidence, get the crowd on their side and change the dynamic just a little.

43'

42'

This has been a very impressive half of football from Arsenal. Oxlade-Chamberlain, Maitland-Niles, Walcott, Reine-Adelaide, Perez and Welbeck all combining as if they've been playing together for years.

41'

Dangerous cross from Hojbjerg and a very confident and brave take from Ospina from under the nose of Long. He takes a little elbow in the back but he’ll be okay.

40'

39'

Southampton will want this half time whistle to blow and get in without conceding another. In danger of getting embarrassing.

38'

37'

Southampton win a corner, cleared as far as Clasie but he mishits his shot into the ground and wide of the post.

36'

GOAL ARSENAL! This time it’s Welbeck who turns provider, crossing in for Walcott to slide in and slot home. Game over?

Goal

B. Chantry

Excelsior Mouscron

35'

Another brilliant pass from Oxlade-Chamberlain in the box with his back to goal but he has no space to turn and Southampton nick the ball off him.

34'

32'

Hojbjerg strikes the free kick and ripples the side netting. Decent effort, though.
