THE LOWDOWN

SOUTHAMPTON

  • Southampton are flirting with the relegation zone at the moment and will need to be at their very best to contain in-form Newcastle here, with the visitors looking like the heavy favourites going into this fixture.
  • Armel Bella-Kotchap could return to the matchday squad after recovering from a shoulder injury, while Romeo Lavia is touch and go as to whether or not he is involved.

NEWCASTLE

  • Newcastle continue to go from strength to strength and they are now eight games unbeaten after seeing off Aston Villa 4-0 last weekend, with the form of Miguel Almiron and Callum Wilson standing out in particular.
  • Wilson should be fine to continue up front despite suffering from a cold recently, while Joelinton is suspended which should pave the way for one of Jacob Murphy, Ryan Fraser or Allan Saint-Maximin to come into the side.

THE TEAM NEWS

SOUTHAMPTON

PREDICTED XI (3-5-2): Bazunu; Lyanco, Caleta-Car, Salisu; Elyounoussi, Ward-Prowse, Diallo, S. Armstrong, Perraud; A. Armstrong, Adams

UNAVAILABLE: Livramento (Injured), Walker-Peters (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Lavia (Fitness)

NEWCASTLE

PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Pope; Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; S. Longstaff, Bruno Guimaraes, Willock; Almiron, Wilson, Murphy

UNAVAILABLE: Krafth (Injured), Dummett (Injured), Ritchie (Injured), Joelinton (Suspended), Isak (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Darlow (Injured), Wilson (Illness)

THE PREDICTION

It’s clear that Newcastle are well ahead of schedule right now with Eddie Howe’s men one of the form teams in the Premier League. No team will want to face them at the moment and Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl knows he has a job on his hands trying to get a result in this fixture. The confidence is surging through the Magpies off the back of an eight-game unbeaten run and they can be backed with a reasonable degree of confidence to pick up the three points here.

TIP: NEWCASTL TO WIN
