Newcastle vs Barcelona: Preview
Newcastle come into this one off the back of an FA Cup exit at the hands of Manchester City and Eddie Howe's side will have to be much better if they want to gain a positive first-leg result against Barcelona.
The Magpies comfortably saw off minnows Qarabag over two legs to book their place in the last 16, but face an old foe in Barcelona, who beat them 2-1 in the league phase thanks to a brace from Marcus Rashford.
Although Anthony Gordon did grab a late consolation goal in that one, Barca dominated the ball for most of the encounter, with on-loan forward Rashford scoring two belting efforts.
In terms of injury news, Nick Woltemade and Sandro Tonali overcame illness and a thigh injury, respectively, to start in the defeat to Man City on Saturday, and Howe will also welcome Jacob Ramsey back from suspension for this game.

Barcelona beat Athletic Club 1-0 thanks to a trademark Lamine Yamal goal at the weekend and Flick's men come into this game in a rich vein of form.
Four wins on the spin and having conceded only one goal, the LaLiga leaders are eyeing a deep run into the latter stages of the competition and already have the know-how, having beaten Newcastle once already this season in Europe.
Alejandro Balde (hamstring), Gavi (knee), Frenkie de Jong (hamstring), Jules Kounde (hamstring) and Andreas Christensen (ACL) are all unavailable, but their options in attack are frightening to say the least.
Robert Lewandowski, Rashford, Yamal and Raphinha are all fighting to start with Newcastle's defence a real target to get at given their leaky tendencies across the campaign so far.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Newcastle 0-3 Barcelona
FourFourTwo thinks it'll be another away win for Barcelona as they cruise to a healthy win in the north-east.
