Defender Gregory Vignal returns to the Southampton squad for the Championship clash with Burnley at St Mary's on Saturday.The former Liverpool and Portsmouth full-back missed last weekend's 1-1 draw at Charlton with a hamstring problem, but he is now back in training and will be available.

Manager Nigel Pearson will have a decision to make, however, after England Under-21 midfielder Andrew Surman proved an effective deputy at left-back against the Addicks.

Saints should otherwise be unchanged, with loanees Chris Lucketti and Chris Perry continuing their 'Dad's Army' partnership in central defence.

Goalkeeper Richard Wright plays the final game of his initial one-month loan spell from West Ham.

Winger Nathan Dyer (ankle), centre-half Andrew Davies (cheekbone) and full-back Chris Makin (hip) remain on the casualty list.
