Tomorrow’s visitors won the first meeting 4-1. Group F matches have been tense, with clashes between fan groups. Before the Newcastle vs Borussia Dortmund game, a brawl erupted in late October. In September, a Newcastle United fan was stabbed three times before the AC Milan match.

‘Do or die’ for Newcastle as PSG seek revenge against The Magpies

Newcastle make the visit to Parc des Princes, knowing fully well that a loss would mean elimination from the group stages. The visitors find themselves at the bottom of Group F, having 4 points from 4 games. However, the ‘Group of Death’ is living up to its bidding, as 3 points separate the 4 teams. Each side has their destiny in their own hands, and victory against PSG would provide a significant boost for Newcastle’s qualification.

As for PSG, losses against Newcastle and Milan place them second, with 6 points from 4 games. A Newcastle side depleted by injuries will look to claim at least a point as Kylian Mbappe and co. will be out for revenge against the Premier League side. Eddie Howe will be without important players such as Sven Botman, Dan Burn, Harvey Barnes, Joe Willock, and Callum Wilson among others. Sandro Tonali remains suspended.

PSG will unleash an attacking trio of Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele, and Gonçalo Ramos against Newcastle’s makeshift back four. However, Luis Enrique will be without Marquinhos, Presnel Kimpembe, Marco Asensio, and Nuno Mendes. The game will kick off at 8:00 pm GMT at the Parc des Princes.
