The TV and broadband provider, Southampton’s main sponsors, and the club will both contribute to cut the cost of tickets for the Everton game from the usual 30 pounds to 10 pounds.


The cost of coach travel has also been reduced.


Manager Mark Hughes and his players have previously called for supporters to back the team during a crucial period, with Saints a point below the safety zone with three matches left.


They have won only two of their last 22 league matches and after playing Everton must visit fellow strugglers Swansea City before hosting champions Manchester City in their last game.
