Match Facts

  • Paris SG and Newcastle’s only previous meetings came in the 2023-24 UEFA Champions League – the two sides drew their meeting at the Parc des Princes (1-1), after Eddie Howe’s side had won 4-1 in the first game at St. James’ Park.

  • This will be Newcastle’s 10th away game against a French side in Europe, while they have only managed one victory from the previous nine (D3 L5): 4-0 v Sochaux in the UEFA Cup in November 2004.

  • Since the 2013-14 season, Paris SG have hosted an English side on 16 occasions in the UEFA Champions League (W8 D4 L4) – those matches have seen a total of 54 goals scored (31 for, 23 against), at an average of 3.4 per game, and both sides have scored at least once in 14 of the 16 fixtures.

  • Paris SG have lost two of their last four UEFA Champions League matches (W1 D1), as many as in their previous 15 combined (W13 L2). They last suffered consecutive defeats in November 2024, losing to Atlético de Madrid and Bayern Munich.

  • Newcastle have won four of their last six games in the UEFA Champions League (D1 L1), keeping a clean sheet in all four victories. Only league phase leaders Arsenal (5) have won more games to nil in the competition this season.

  • Across their first five UEFA Champions League games this season, Paris SG scored 19 goals, converting 18.6% of their attempts (19/102). In their last two games, they’ve actually averaged more shots per game (23) than in their first five games (20) but have scored just one goal from 46 shots (2.2% conversion).

  • Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon has been directly involved in eight goals in the UEFA Champions League this season (6 goals, 2 assists), while the last English with more for an English club in a single edition was Raheem Sterling for Manchester City in 2019-20 (9 – 6 goals, 3 assists).

  • On MD7 in their defeat to Sporting, Paris SG’s Désiré Doué created seven chances to become the youngest player Opta has on record to achieve that in a UEFA Champions League match since 2003-04 (20 years, 231 days). He’s the second Paris SG player to do that this season (Lee Kang-In vs Bayern Munich), with only two Paris players creating 7+ chances in a match between 2004-05 and 2024-25 on record previously.

  • Newcastle’s Bruno Guimarães has averaged 2.2 defensive line-breaking passes per 90 in the UEFA Champions League this season; the most by any player with 300+ minutes played.

  • Since the start of 2025, Paris SG’s Ousmane Dembélé has been involved in 15 goals in 15 UEFA Champions League appearances (9 goals, 6 assists). He has 19 assists in the competition and could be the fifth Frenchman to assist 20+ goals, along with Karim Benzema (27), Zinedine Zidane (26), Thierry Henry (25) and Kylian Mbappé (24).
