For the second time in six months, Newcastle United will host Barcelona in the Champions League—but now, the mouthwatering clash comes in the round 16.
The Catalan giants previously found success at St James’ Park in the league phase, when a brace from Marcus Rashford propelled them past Eddie Howe’s men back in September. The stage is now set for a rematch in what is Newcastle’s first-ever last 16 tie in Europe’s premier club competition.
Barcelona, who will have Lamine Yamal available this time around, will be eager to grind out a positive result in front of an electrifying home crowd, and would undoubtedly be satisfied with taking a draw back to Camp Nou, where they remain perfect this season.
Here’s how fans can watch this Champions League clash.
