Paris Saint-Germain vs Newcastle Preview
Recent results
PSG followed a 0-0 draw at Athletic Bilbao with a 2-1 loss at Sporting Lisbon on Matchday 7, seeing them move down to sixth in the table. Newcastle picked up a huge 3-0 home win over PSV Eindhoven last week to move level on 13 points with tomorrow’s opponents.
Of course, the Parisians have been better on home soil in the League Phase with big wins over Atalanta (4-0) and Tottenham (5-3), though Enrique’s men did also lose 2-1 to Bayern Munich at the Parc des Princes.
Newcastle’s first away match in this competition saw them win 4-0 at Union Saint-Gilloise, but since then it has been a 2-1 loss vs Marseille and a 2-2 draw with Bayer Leverkusen on the road.
The Magpies also enter this fixture on the back of a 2-0 home defeat to Aston Villa in the Premier League, while PSG collected a 1-0 Ligue 1 win at Auxerre on the weekend.
Head-to-head record
PSG and Newcastle met for the first time in the 2023-24 Champions League group stage. The Magpies famously won 4-1 at home, and earned a credible 1-1 draw in Paris, a game which featured a controversial late penalty for the hosts – which was converted by Kylian Mbappe.
Team news
PSG should be boosted by the return of key trio Achraf Hakimi, Nuno Mendes and Joao Neves to the squad, although Fabian Ruiz remains an injury doubt after missing the Auxerre game.
Unfortunately for Newcastle, Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton – two vital components of Howe’s midfield – are touch-and-go here, while Jacob Murphy, Fabian Schar and Tino Livramento are long-term absentees.
Paris Saint-Germain vs Newcastle Odds

Paris Saint-Germain vs Newcastle Betting Tips
Player to score or assist – Vitinha @ 2.72
Vitinha, PSG’s midfield general, has racked up some impressive stats in 2025-26. The Portuguese metronome is the team’s leading scorer in the Champions League with four goals, and he has tallied seven assists from 18 Ligue 1 appearances. Overall, he has 15 goal contributions from 29 matches across all competitions this season, a fine record which makes the price here very appealing indeed.
Vitinha to have over 0.5 shots on target @ 2.10
Vitinha is certainly not afraid of taking shots from distance, evidenced by two long-range stunners as part of a hat-trick vs Spurs, the other goal a penalty. With Newcastle likely to sit in a deep block and seek to operate on the counter, Vitinha’s shooting boots could be a secret weapon for Enrique. At better than evens, this looks a fantastic selection, with Vitinha already registering eight shots on target in the Champions League this season.
Sandro Tonali to commit over 1.5 fouls @ 2.63
Guimaraes and Joelinton’s potential absences mean Tonali’s role in Paris is crucial. And against a formidable PSG midfield, we fancy the Italian to be drawn into making at least a couple of fouls in the heat of battle. He has committed at least one foul in seven of his last nine Premier League appearances.
