What do the stats say?
Since Southampton returned to the Premier League in 2012/13, the only manager to lose more top-flight games against the Saints than Newcastle boss Steve Bruce (5) is Alan Pardew (6), despite Bruce not facing Southampton in any league season between 2015/16 and 2018/19.
Southampton haven't lost five consecutive league matches since September 1998 under Dave Jones, while this current four-game losing run is the longest in Ralph Hasenhüttl's league managerial career.
Southampton are looking to record only their third Premier League double over Newcastle, previously doing so in 1993/94 and 2014/15.
Newcastle United have lost just one of their last 15 home Premier League matches against Southampton (W11 D3), winning each of their last three in a row.
Confirmed Line ups
For Southampton four changes from the demolition job in midweek. New boy Takumi Minamino gets a start.

Steve Bruces comments before Southampton
“When you hear the stories coming out of Southampton it looks as though they’ll be near enough back to full strength.
"From being depleted the other night, but I’ve been pleased with what we’ve been doing and we need to keep our momentum going."
On the midweek defeat to Crystal Palace:
"We had 20 attempts and 60% possession which pleased me.
"The number of chances we created pleased me too but unfortunately we gave poor goals away and that 15/20 minutes ultimately cost us.
"For large parts of it, I thought we played OK."
Bruce finally putting the Graeme Jones conspiracies to bed:
"I reiterate again: he was my first choice so I wish I could put all these conspiracy theories to bed."
Adds Jones wanted to watch the first 10-15m of Palace game from a height before coming down. "I don't know what all the fuss is about that,"
Five big takeaways from Ralph Hasenhuttl's pre-Match press conference
Team News
Newcastle are short in the left-back department with Jamaal Lewis picking up a hamstring problem, and Paul Dummett is still not fit, so it means Matt Ritchie will likely get the nod. Federico Fernandez Jamal Lascelles are both unavailable, and Newcastle are in the dark about Ciaran Clark after his partner has gone into Labour.
Southampton
Southampton's injury crisis appears to be stabilising, and could have Oriol Romeu and Yannik Vestergaard available for the trip to Newcastle, Romeu trained on Thursday. However, it is still unsure if he will be fit enough, while Vestergaard has a slightly better chance of playing. Alexandre Jankewitz is suspended after his red card midweek, but Jan Bednarek's dismissal was overturned on appeal.
Head to Head
Newcastle Form
Newcastle sits 16th in the Premier League table.
Southampton form
Southampton sits 12th in the table.
Time to bounce back.
Southampton is indeed in need of a bounce back. With injuries and suspensions hitting the squad depth hard not to mention a second 9-0 defeat in two seasons. Many Saints fans will want to move as quickly as possible if history is to repeat itself the saints are in for more trouble as after the first 9-0 defeat at Leicester almost sixteen months ago Southampton did not win any of their next four games. Something is different about this Southampton team this time, and the result may have been the same, but the match was a completely different affair.

Massive result for Newcastle, and a huge blow for Southampton.
