The game will be McClaren's first competitive fixture at St James' Park, and could see him call on signings of Aleksandar Mitrovic, Chancel Mbemba and Georginio Wijnaldum. Mitrovic is the strongest player of the three and a lot is expected of him. With Newcastle being barely over relegation under John Carver last season, McClaren wants to usher in a new era on Tyneside with a positive showing. Southampton have an unusual injury concern over manager Ronald Koeman.
The Dutchman injured his achilles in training earlier this week, but he was present for their Uefa Europa League progression at Vitesse on Thursday. While he recovers from the surgery, Koeman will miss his side's opener against on Saturday. His assistant and brother, Erwin, will take charge at St James's Park. Loads of changes for both teams is the reason i believe defenses still don't have it all together so i predict both to score for this game. Good Luck.
