Newcastle vs Southampton Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Devesh Jaganath in Premier League Prediction
Two sides with contrasting ambitions for the rest of the season will clash in the Premier League this week when Newcastle United welcomes Southampton to St James Park on Sunday afternoon. The hosts seem to have found top gear in recent weeks and are now on the cusp of bringing Champions League football back to St James Park after a 20-year wait. Meanwhile, Southampton have just five matches to find a way to save themselves from the drop, and while a win here wouldn’t be enough to get them out of the relegation zone, it could be exactly what they need to get their spirits up and go on to pull off what would be an incredible escape.

Unsurprisingly, Newcastle are the outright favourites for this match, but there is still value to be had with odds of 1.3 available for the win. The draw is currently returning 5.5, while a win for the visitors is priced up at a whopping 11.0 and better. Newcastle’s front-men have been in sensational form in the last few weeks, slotting away 10 goals in their last two matches, which brings a few interesting markets into play. The first is the handicap result which can be found at prices of 1.83 for the -1 option, while the riskier -2 will return in the region of 3.1 on your wager. Next up is the over 2.5 goals market, which looks like another smart play, and you can look forward to a 1.7 return on that option.

Newcastle - Southampton: Form Analysis
Newcastle won their last match 4-1 over West Ham United last weekend, which takes their recent record to seven wins in their last eight matches, scoring 23 goals and conceding nine in that time. At home this season, Newcastle have only lost one of 15 matches, along with five draws and nine wins. Newcastle will be looking to extend a three-match winning run on their home patch. On the flip side, Southampton lost a crucial match 1-0 last time out against AFC Bournemouth. With that loss, the visitors have now failed to win any of their last eight matches, drawing three and losing five. They come into this one winless in their last four matches on the road and have not beaten this opponent in their last four attempts, either.

Newcastle & Southampton Squad Analysis
Newcastle made several changes to the side that beat West Ham last week, and they will likely revert back to the midfield trio of Bruno Guimaraes, Sean Longstaff, and Joe Willock for this one. Allan Saint-Maximin and Emil Krafth will remain sidelined with injuries. Southampton will be without the services of as many as four players through injury, with Mohamed Salisu, Romain Perraud, Juan Larios, and Tino Livramento all set to miss out. However, the biggest concern for the Saints will be the fitness of James Ward-Prowse after the captain was taken off at half-time in midweek due to an illness.
