Newcastle United will visit the Parc des Princes on Wednesday, aiming for a direct place in the Champions League Round of 16.
Currently in seventh place in the league, Newcastle’s manager, Eddie Howe, faces a tough challenge against the current European champions. A victory is necessary to avoid the February play-off round. While their recent European performances have been strong, injuries are affecting their defense. Winning this match would be a significant achievement for the club.
