Newcastle United are in incredible form ahead of Sunday’s trip to the south coast. The Magpies are on a three-game winning streak and sit fourth in the division.
A win against Southampton on Sunday could send Newcastle into third place depending on Tottenham’s result versus Liverpool later in the day.
Newcastle United lost just one of their 13 matches this season in the league. The only team to defeat Newcastle were Liverpool, who needed a 95th-minute winner at Anfield to claim all three points.
Sunday’s opponent, Southampton, are 17th in the table after 13 games. The Saints are one point above the relegation zone, and they could start Sunday in the bottom three depending on Saturday’s matches.
Newcastle United are unbeaten in five of their last six games versus Southampton. Last season, Newcastle took four points from six against the Saints, and they are on a three-game unbeaten run against Sunday’s home team.
The Magpies are the Premier League’s form team. They took 16 points from the last 18 points on offer. Newcastle outscored their last six opponents 16-3.
Southampton took five points from the last six games in the division. They were outscored 9-4 in those six games. Goalscoring has been an issue for Southampton. They have 11 goals after 13 games, which is the joint third-lowest number of goals this season.

Defender Fabian Schar could return to the team in time for the fixture following a thigh strain.
Ralph Hasenhuttl has three players on the injury list, as the manager faces down the pressure at St Mary’s. Hasenhuttl could be sacked during the World Cup break, and fears grow over the future for the manager.
He will be without Valentino Livramento and Kyle Walker-Peters due to leg injuries, and the full-backs will be a major absence. Centre-back Armel Bella-Kotchap could return to the squad following a shoulder injury.
Newcastle are the league’s form team, and their brilliant play should continue on Sunday with a win away from home. The Magpies should post a 2-0 away win at St Mary’s. The league has seen 3.97% of matches this season end 2-0 to the away side.
