Southampton and Newcastle go head to head in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final on Tuesday with both sides desperate to land silverware.

The Saints' last trophy came in 1976 as they pulled off a major shock to beat Manchester United to win the FA Cup.

Southampton overcame Manchester City in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals to set up the Newcastle clash and prior to their defeat at home against Aston Villa, they'd found some form under Nathan Jones.

They'd won three in a row before the Villa defeat – however, they face a Newcastle side who have been sensational under Eddie Howe this season.

The Toon, who beat Leicester in the quarter-finals, are eyeing Carabao Cup success as well as securing Champions League football for next season.

Newcastle's last piece of major silverware came in 1955 as they won the FA Cup, beating City 3-1.

Southampton v Newcastle prediction

Despite Southampton impressing before their defeat against Aston Villa, Newcastle should have too much for the Saints, especially over two legs.

Newcastle dropped two points last weekend as they drew 0-0 at Crystal Palace and Eddie Howe will be demanding a response from his high flyers on Tuesday night.
