The Toon Army are still on cloud nine after their historic 4-1 victory over French champion PSG in their previous Champions League group match. Newcastle’s nervy goalless draw with AC Milan had suggested the Magpies may struggle to compete at this level, but such a convincing win over a Parisian side bursting with quality has sent a message to the rest of the group. Currently, Newcastle are topping the so-called “Group of Death” and another big win at St James’ Park would put them in the driver's seat to qualify for the first knockout stage of the tournament. 

Meanwhile, Dortmund’s CL campaign hasn’t started quite as brightly. The German side lost to PSG in their first group match before playing out a goalless draw in front of their own supporters against AC Milan. After failure to win either of these games, BVB are sitting at the bottom of the table and risk being cut adrift if they don’t manage to claim all three points against Newcastle. However, the side’s strong Bundesliga league form is a comfort. Dortmund have won their last five league games in a row, and haven’t tasted defeat domestically yet this season. 

Here's how they line up: 

Newcastle: Pope, Trippier, Lascelles, Schar, Burn, Longstaff, Guimaraes, Joelinton, Almiron, Isak, Gordon.

Dortmund: Kobel, Wolf, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini;, Can, Nmecha, Sabitzer, Reus, Fullkrug, Malen.

Can Newcastle pull off another remarkable Champions League result in front of a sold-out St James’ Park crowd, or will Dortmund finally get their own CL campaign up and running? You’ll need to watch a Newcastle vs Dortmund live stream to find out, and we’ve got all the details you need below.
