Is Newcastle United v PSV on TV? Streaming details, injury news and how Champions League history can be made
Newcastle United latest news: How to watch Newcastle United v PSV Eindhoven, streaming details and injury and team news.
Eddie Howe’s side are back in Champions League action tonight in their penultimate league phase game.
Their opponents, PSV Eindhoven, have lost just once in the league this season and hammered Liverpool 4-1 at Anfield earlier on this campaign. Peter Bosz’s side still harbour hopes of qualifying for the knockout rounds of the Champions League - something that Newcastle United could seal tonight with a favourable result.
Howe, though, will not have any of his injured players back in action tonight and will have to go with the same squad that drew 0-0 at Wolves on Sunday. Here, we take a look at everything supporters need to know ahead of tonight’s clash between Newcastle United and PSV - including how the Magpies can guarantee progress to the knockout stages of the Champions League.
Is Newcastle United v PSV Eindhoven on TV?
Yes, Newcastle United’s clash with PSV in the Champions League will be broadcast on TV in the United Kingdom. TNT Sports will broadcast the match from St James’ Park and coverage begins at 7pm.
Tonight’s game can also be streamed online on Discovery +. German referee Daniel Siebert will referee the match and he will be assisted by fellow countrymen Jan Seidel and Rafael Foltyn on Tyneside.

Radio commentary of tonight’s game will be provided by Talk Sport 2. Alternatively, the Shields Gazette will bring you all the latest updates, news and reaction from events that unfold at St James’ Park online, on our social media channels and through our new WhatsApp channel.
Can Newcastle United qualify for the Champions League knockout stages tonight?
Yes, a win and favourable results elsewhere will guarantee Newcastle United their place in the knockout stage of the Champions League for the first time in the club’s history. The Magpies began the day sat 13th in the league phase table, three points above 25th placed Qarabag.
Any finish in the top-24 will be enough to secure progression to the knockout rounds and unless some crazy results happen tonight, Union SG defeating Bayern Munich and Benfica triumphing over Juventus, Newcastle United will progress to the knockout stage even with a draw or defeat against PSV.
Looking upwards, Howe’s side also have an outside chance of finishing in the top-eight and, crucially, qualifying directly for the Round of 16 and thus removing a two-legged play-off match from their already hectic schedule. That, though, will likely only happen if they win tonight and then beat reigning European champions PSG at the Parc des Princes next week.
Newcastle United injury news v PSV Eindhoven
Whilst Howe provided a fairly positive injury update at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday night, he did confirm that neither Dan Burn nor Will Osula will feature tonight. Burn and Osula have been missing since mid-December and early-November respectively and despite returning to training this week, neither have been deemed fit enough to take part this evening.
Tino Livramento and Fabian Schar remain sidelined with hamstring and ankle injuries. Emil Krafth is also out, with Jamaal Lascelles unable to play as he has not been registered for this competition.
