Southampton vs Newcastle United - Match Preview: The Everything is Black and White Podcast

Newcastle United head down to St Mary’s to face Southampton on Thursday evening. The Magpies after victory over Brighton will look to extend their unbeaten run to nine games.

Like Newcastle, Southampton had been on an excellent run of form with Saints’ boss Ralph Hasenhüttl nominated for manager of the month alongside Toon head coach Eddie Howe. However whereas Howe led his side to victory last weekend, Hasenhüttl oversaw a four-nil defeat to Aston Villa.

The Austrian has demanded his Southampton side get back to basics and is expecting a response against Newcastle. In the preview episode of The Everything is Black and White Podcast , Andrew Musgrove and John Gibson look ahead to the game.

Speaking about the potential result, Gibbo said: “I think it will be a draw, which means we keep the unbeaten run going. If I could have that [result] now or take my chance, I would probably take the draw.

“At some stage, this run is going to finish and if you look at the logic, it’s probably going to come in the next four games - you’ll lose at Chelsea or Spurs, then you have to bounce back. I am looking for us to get a point at Southampton and I think that would be a good result.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Gibbo and Andrew talk about the win over Brighton, the imminent start of Bruno Guimaraes, Chris Wood’s goalless run and if Dan Burn could play his way into the England picture.
