Southampton midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles has reiterated his confidence that his team will avoid relegation.

The Saints are in a precarious position at the bottom of the Premier League.

However, Maitland-Niles believes that if they can win enough of their final ten games, they will stay up.

"We are very confident," he said to reporters.

“I think every player has confidence in the man beside him and that's what is most important for the team and the dressing room.

“We will fight for each other on the pitch. We know we can look left and right and know that we are all going to give 120 per cent."
