THE PREDICTION
Michael Flynn has coached his Newport County sides to some excellent results and performances against Premier League and Championship sides in cup competitions at Rodney Parade in recent years. A draw with Tottenham, victories over Leeds and Leicester as well as taking both Newcastle and Brighton to penalties last season are a list of results to show the difficulty of the trip facing Southampton this week. Hassenhuttl has a fairly thin squad at his disposal so if Saints were to rotate then it could be a weak side they put out. It is likely to be a fairly tight affair so under 2.5 goals looks the way to go for this one.
