In the final round of the Champions League, Newcastle will take on Milan.

Both teams need a victory to qualify for the round of 16 and even this result might not be enough if PSG manages to beat Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park. 

Champions League Group F Standings

  1. Borussia Dortmund – 10 points
  2. Paris Saint-Germain – 7 points
  3. Newcastle United – 5 points
  4. AC Milan – 5 points

Newcastle finds itself in a challenging spot following their last encounter, where they conceded a last-minute penalty to PSG, leading to a 1-1 draw.

The Magpies had maintained the lead for most of the match but ultimately succumbed to the pressure.

On the other hand, Milan suffered a heavy defeat against Dortmund (1-3) at San Siro. The absence of Rafael Leão played a pivotal role, but the Rossoneri’s performance was lacklustre throughout the whole match.

Newcastle vs Milan Prediction, Odds

While none of the teams perform at their peak and have injury woes, Newcastle remains the favourite when playing at St. James Park.

Backing up this favouritism with statistics, Newcastle boasts the third-best home record in the Premier League. In eight matches at St. James Park, they have amassed 21 points, scoring 19 goals while conceding only four. 

Their only home defeats this season were against Liverpool and Dortmund.

However, Newcastle is dealing with injury challenges, with key defenders Sven Botman, Matt Targett, and Dan Burn out for this match.

Additionally, they’re missing vital midfielders. Sandro Tonali faces suspension due to betting breaches from his time with the opposing team. Moreover, Joe Willock and Elliot Anderson are also sidelined due to injuries.

Milan, on the other hand, has had a tough time in away games. They faced a 3-0 defeat against PSG, settled for a draw against Dortmund, and most recently experienced a loss against Atalanta.

Although Rafael Leão is back from his injury, he is yet to regain his top form. Moreover, Milan is missing crucial players in defence, including Malick Thiaw, Simon Kjær and Pierre Kalulu. 

This scenario will likely give Newcastle the edge in their attacking phase, and the Magpies will capitalize on their chances. 

Newcastle vs Milan Betting Tip

Based on their previous results and current injury issues, it is unlikely that either team will keep a clean sheet in this match.

Furthermore, with anything less than a victory leading to elimination, both Milan and Newcastle are expected to adopt an aggressive approach right from the start, focusing on attacking rather than sitting back in defence.

In Newcastle’s last five matches across all tournaments, three of them ended with a total exceeding 2.5 goals.

Similarly, Milan has seen over 2.5 goals in four of their recent matches.

Moreover, Newcastle boasts a strong goal-scoring record at home. Given the high stakes of this match, both teams are likely to be fully committed to capitalizing on every scoring opportunity presented.
