Champions League football returns to St James’ Park as Newcastle host Paris Saint-Germain.
After being absent from the top tier of continental competition for two decades, Eddie Howe’s side opened their season with a solid 1-1 draw in Milan.
PSG began its efforts in Group F with a win over Borussia Dortmund, but domestically things were not going smoothly for new coach Luis Enrique.
The club from the French capital suffered its third draw of the season against Clermont on Saturday, but is hoping for a clear away win here.

Team news
Harvey Barnes, Joe Willock and Sven Botman are all expected to miss Newcastle through injury, although Callum Wilson’s hamstring injury means the striker is a big doubt. Eddie Howe said Joelinton’s early substitution against Burnley was not due to a serious problem and the Brazilian faces a late fitness test.
PSG’s Kylian Mbappe appears to have overcome an ankle problem and is likely to start, but Nuno Mendes has joined a long-term injury list that also includes Presnel Kimpembe and Marco Asensio.
