Champions League football returns to St James’ Park as Newcastle host Paris Saint-Germain.

After two decades away from the top tier of continental competition, Eddie Howe’s side opened their campaign with a solid 1-1 draw at Milan.

PSG began their Group F efforts with a win over Borussia Dortmund, but it has not been smooth sailing domestically for new boss Luis Enrique.

The French capital club suffered a third draw of the season so far against struggling Clermont on Saturday but will eye a significant away win here.

Team news

Harvey Barnes, Joe Willock and Sven Botman are all expected to miss out for Newcastle due to injury, though Callum Wilson’s hamstring injury means the striker is a major doubt. Eddie Howe suggested Joelinton’s early subsitution against Burnley was not due to a serious issue 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.
