Team News
Newcastle
Southampton
- Joseph Willock didn't join in time to face Crystal Palace in midweek but will debut here.
- Steve Bruce has confirmed Allan Saint-Maximin is now ready to start.
- Southampton plunged into crisis in midweek with a 9-0 defeat away to Manchester United.
- 19-year-old Alexandre Jankewitz was sent off on his full league debut within two minutes and is now banned for three games.
- Jan Bednarek was also shown his marching orders but Southampton have successfully overturned it on appeal.
- Deadline day signing Takumi Minamino must be wondering what he has joined but he is now free to debut for Ralph Hasenhuttl's side.
- Unless one of Danny Ings or Che Adams are dropped, Hasenhuttl may change formation to get Minamino in the side. Playing him central midfield alongside James Ward-Prowse may leave them exposed defensively.
- Kyle Walker-Peters' injury isn't as bad as first feared and he could return here. Kayne Ramsey is on standby to continue.
- Oriol Romeu trained on Thursday and should return here, while Jannik Vestergaard has an outside chance of making it.
- A minor muscle injury will keep Stuart Armstrong out of this one.
Bednarek is absolute garbage
@MorrisBuck88 dude he was very good throughout the season, you're talking nonsense
Bednarek scores an own goal in his second match in a row. Shame, he had a nice season before.
Jan Bednarek scores his 2nd own goal in a week :)
@Rensen didn`t he get a red card last match? how is he playing?
@deo90000 his card was overturned. and apparently it wasn't an own goal
Attacking line-up from Newcastle should be goals
1-1
Newcastle - Southampton 3:1(1:1)
