Southampton vs Newcastle United Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Saints battle for pride against the Magpies.

The last-placed Southampton are all set to cash against Newcastle United in their next Premier League outing on January 25. Southampton are on a bad run as they have been only able to win a single game so far in the Premier League 2024-25 season. Newcastle United were also flying until they were shocked by Bournemouth in their last clash. The Magpies currently reside at the sixth spot in the standings.

Southampton with their poor form can only hope for the things to work from this point going further. They have conceded 50 goals already this season so far with more than 10 matches remaining. The Saints will be battling for their pride but it is going to be a tough contest to face the heavyweights Newcastle United. Southampton might be able to pull off a shocker but the odds are very less looking at their current run of form.

The Magpies will be looking to secure three vital points as they eye a spot in the Champions League for the next season. With a win over Southampton, Newcastle can climb up the way to the top four but only if Chelsea and Manchester City drop points. Southampton vs Newcastle might end up as a one-sided match looking at the current form of the Magpies.
