Next Newcastle United manager Nuno Espirito Santo Premier League EPL
Nuno Espirito Santo Wolves

Wolves have managed to get their season back on track and next up they will be taking on Southampton at home on Saturday.

The Wanderers have not lost in their past three Premier League outings and last weekend they managed to beat defending champions Manchester City 2-0 at the Etihad.

And on the other side, the Saints have been having the exact opposite luck as they have failed to pick up a point in their last three games and right they are just above the relegation zone – courtesy of goal difference.

On paper, this should be a fighting contest between both the sides but given that Santo’s side managed to beat the mighty Man City away from home last weekend, the momentum will surely be tipped in their favour.

Southampton need to pick up a win in this match since their next two league games will be against Leicester and Man City respectively and picking up points in these two matches will be next to impossible for them.
