Southampton beat Manchester City 2-0 in the League Cup quarter-final just 24 hours after Newcastle's win over Leicester City. But the Saints are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League and Newcastle go into the tie after beating Southampton 4-1 in the Premier League game at St Mary's.

However, since then Southampton have replaced Ralph Hasenhüttl with Nathan Jones and have rallied in the last two games in the FA Cup, beating Crystal Palace, and tonight against Man City with the result of the round.

The first leg will take place in the week commencing January 23, with the return fixtures will be in the week beginning January 30.
