Newcastle take a slender lead into their Carabao Cup semi-final second leg with Southampton.
Joelinton’s goal on the south coast last week was enough to see Eddie Howe’s side claim a hard-fought win at St Mary’s and strike first blood in the battle to reach next month’s final at Wembley.
Still, as has been the case in recent weeks, the Magpies were guilty of missing chances, keeping Saints in the tie.
While Nathan Jones’ team are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League, few can doubt there has been an improvement under his watch despite a difficult start.
Certainly, with a set-piece taker like James Ward-Prowse in the ranks, they cannot be ruled out.
Here’s where to watch the action later today.
