Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe says Toon fans don't need to be told the script for next week's League Cup semi-final second leg against Southampton.
The Magpies will go into the clash with a slender lead after the first leg thanks to Joelinton's winner on the South Coast. But Howe has made it clear that there is still a job to be done.
With a sell out crowd in store on Tuesday against the Saints, Howe said: "I think to the supporters it's is ‘same again'. Their support for us at home has been incredible.

"It’ll be the same again. "I don’t think they have to do anything different to what they’ve done, and the away support we had at Southampton was a great thing to see."
Howe has been heavily involved with transfers but with Newcastle so close to their first major final since 1999, it is on the field matters that concern him most. He said: "My mind’s already on next week, and the challenges we face going into the game and how we can get the players in the best frame of mind to play well. Any thought of anything else away from the game can wait. "I think it’s about the next game, and make sure we play well."
