Following their stunning win against PSG last time out in this competition, Tyneside is preparing itself for another Champions League night.
Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund are the opponents and although they are yet to win in this season’s competition, they have tasted defeat just once in their last 19 games in all competitions and are unbeaten in the league this season.
Newcastle, meanwhile, come into the game after a comfortable win over Crystal Palace and Eddie Howe has a relatively full squad to pick from with just Harvey Barnes, Sven Botman and Joe Willock likely to miss the game.
Here, we take a look at the starting XI Howe could pick to face Borussia Dortmund at St James’ Park:
