Southampton will be looking to make it three wins on the bounce when they visit Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.
Saints recorded two crucial victories in the past week, beating both Watford and Norwich City 2-1 at St Mary’s.
These six points moved Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side out of the relegation zone, and they will now hope to kick on even further at St James’ Park.
Newcastle also come into this match full of confidence after a 2-2 draw with Manchester City last Saturday before an impressive 2-0 win at Sheffield United on Thursday.
These results moved the Magpies up to 11th in the Premier League, four points above the Saints and only four points off fifth.
Southampton have struggled in Newcastle in recent years, and have lost their last two trips to the North East by an aggregate scoreline of 6-1.
Here’s how we predict the Southampton side to line up.
