Southampton - Ronald Koeman has admitted Southampton's target is qualifying for the Europa League after conceding defeat in his side's bid to secure a top-four finish.
The Saints will kick off against Hull City at St Mary's Stadium on Saturday in seventh spot, eight points adrift of fourth-placed Manchester City with just seven games remaining in the Premier League season.
Hull's desperate plight - they sit one place and two points outside the bottom three - will ensure Steve Bruce's side arrive on the south coast highly motivated, and a home victory is far from assured.
