Saints pair Nathaniel Clyne and Fraser Forster have been named in Roy Hodgson's latest England squad.
The right back and the keeper are included for the Euro 2016 qualifier against Slovenia a week on Saturday and the friendly against Scotland on Tuesday, November 18.
Former Saints stars Calum Chambers, Adam Lallana, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Theo Walcott and Rickie Lambert are also in the squad.
Clyne will be hoping to win his first cap having been overlooked in the last set of England fixtures with Chambers preferred.
The big headline of the announcement was that Saido Berahino has been called up to the England squad for the first time.
Berahino has been in good form for West Brom this season, scoring seven goals in 10 Premier League matches, and the Burundi-born 21-year-old has been rewarded by Hodgson.
