Newcastle are one of six English teams in this season's Champions League, and they are back on Tyneside as they welcome Athletic Club to the North-East.
The Magpies suffered a disappointing defeat to Barcelona in their opening Champions League game, but have since been almost unstoppable in the competition. Scoring seven times in their next two games as they made light work of Union SG and Jose Mourinho's Benfica.
