However, the hero of that shootout win, goalkeeper Dean Henderson, will be unavailable for the tie as he is currently on a season-long loan from Old Trafford.
Newcastle reached the League Cup semifinals for the first time since 1976 with a 2-0 win over Leicester City on Tuesday. And, riding high in the Premier League under Eddie Howe, they will have the advantage of hosting Southampton in the second leg.
