Newcastle vs Southampton Team Overview 

Newcastle

Eddie Howe will start the new Premier League season in the Newcastle dugout, despite being linked with the England job. The Magpies will be aiming to force their way back into the Champions League spots this term after finishing outside of the top four last term. However, many of their issues in 2023-24 stemmed from poor luck with injuries, as only Man United had more players on the sidelines last term.

A home win will be a prominent selection when making a Newcastle vs Southampton prediction this weekend. The Magpies have added defensive quality this summer, with Newcastle bringing in Miodrag Pivas and Lloyd Kelly. Newcastle come into the opening weekend of the season after winning five of their six pre-season fixtures. 

Southampton

Southampton bounced back to the Premier League at the first opportunity last term after escaping the Championship through the playoffs. Russell Martin will be aware that his side will rank among the favourites to suffer relegation this term, and a quick start to the campaign will be required to ease any worries that they may have on the opening day.

The Saints have been smart in the transfer market this summer, with experienced midfielder and former captain Adam Lallana returning to the club. There will also be pressure on former Sheffield United striker Ben Brereton Diaz to score the goals to fire the Saints toward safety. Southampton have played out draws in their last two pre-season matches against Lazio and Getafe.

Newcastle vs Southampton Prediction 

  • Pick: Newcastle To Win To Nil
  • Odds: 2.67 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Newcastle 3-0 Southampton

We could see the Saints having a rude awakening to life back in the Premier League this weekend. 

There aren’t many clear scorers in the Southampton forward line, and they could easily come unstuck against a Newcastle side that have been efficient on the opening day in the last few seasons. For that reason, we will be siding with a comfortable home win when making a Newcastle vs Southampton prediction. 

Newcastle vs Southampton Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Anthony Gordon To Score
  • Odds: 2.7 (22Bet)

Anthony Gordon wasn’t given his chance to shine at the EUROs for England, and the 23-year-old could be out to prove that he could have offered something different for the Three Lions this season. 

Gordon enjoyed an excellent season last term, netting eleven goals and registering ten assists in 35 outings. He has already been in scoring form during pre-season after netting in a recent 4-0 win against Girona.
