This is the table that will be making fans of Newcastle and Southampton very nervous.

A loss for either side will leave them in the bottom three if Crystal Palace beat Chelsea in the late game today.

"Newcastle’s team have done wonders to get where they are. Slimani hasn’t been fit and they need goals. This is a massive game for them, they need to win. And I think they might do it."

Still no Slimani today for Newcastle.

Three changes for Newcastle from the side that lost 2-0 at Liverpool as Jonjo Shelvey, Matt Ritchie and Ayoze Perez return to the starting line-up.

Newcastle: Dubravka, Yedlin, Lascelles, Lejeune, Dummett, Ritchie, Shelvey, Diame, Kenedy, Perez, Gayle. Substitutes: Darlow, Clark, Murphy, Manquillo, Joselu, Merino, Atsu.

Hello and welcome along to BBC Sport's live text commentary.

I'm Michael Emons and will be guiding you through all the action in this big match for both sides.

The teams are in, so that seems a good place to start....

Newcastle are 16th in the Premier League and Southampton are 17th with only nine games each left to save themselves from the drop.

This is one of those games where both teams will have marked this one as 'must-win'.

Newcastle gained a magnificent win over Manchester United in their last home game and Southampton have only lost once in 10 games in all competitions.

Who will be celebrating today?
