Pick your Newcastle United starting XI for Magpies' away clash at Southampton

Newcastle United will be hoping to pick up where they left off after a near-perfect October when they travel south to face Southampton. Eddie Howe's side will be looking to register a sixth victory in their last seven Premier League matches in the televised encounter at St Mary's.

The Magpies have only lost once so far this season, and currently sit in a top-four spot after backing up the win at Tottenham with another success at St James' Park. Howe's side have three more fixtures to negotiate before the World Cup break, with a Carabao Cup tie with Crystal Palace quickly followed by a home clash with Chelsea.

The Newcastle boss named an unchanged starting eleven in his last outing, but will have to replace Joelinton with the Brazilian ruled out through suspension. Allan Saint-Maximin could be a contender for a start after making his return from injury with a late cameo against Villa.
