Eddie Howe kept faith with the men who handed Newcastle a 1-0 semi-final advantage over Southampton as they looked to secure a trip to Wembley.

Joelinton, who scored the only goal on the south coast seven days ago, was included, but record signing Alexander Isak - who set him up after coming off the bench - was named among the substitutes once again.

Southampton manager Nathan Jones handed January signing James Bree a debut as he, Jan Bednarek, Che Adams and Magpies old boy Adam Armstrong were drafted into the side which started the first leg.
