The EFL have confirmed that James Linington will be the man in the middle at St Mary's Stadium on Tuesday night.
City take on Southampton in the SkyBet Championship, with kick-off scheduled for 7:45pm.
Linington takes charge of his first City fixture of the season, having been in charge of two fixtures during the 2022/23 campaign, against Birmingham City and Stoke City.
So far this season, Linington has awarded 96 yellow cards and one red card across the Championship, League One, League Two and Carabao Cup.
He will be assisted by Hristo Karaivanov and Graham Kane, with Charles Breakspear acting as fourth official.
