The Geordies are a great fan base, but I did not expect this atmosphere. I can feel it through the TV; to be there must be crazy. That's a 12th man if I've ever seen one.

Could Newcastle have done with a proper striker there? Anthony Elanga flies past Gerard Martin and squares the ball for Anthony Gordon, who doesn't make any real contact with the ball about eight yards away from goal.
Man City 0-0 Napoli
A first shot in anger and it comes from the boot of Ruben Dias. Drilled hard and low from outside the box...but wide.
Newcastle 0-0 Barcelona
Good pressing from Newcastle's frontline to put Barca keeper Joan Garcia under major pressure. It's Garcia's Champions League debut.

Nick Woltemade is eating a banana on the Newcastle bench.
Man City 0-0 Napoli
Gianluigi Donnarumma is getting stick from the travelling Napoli fans. Jeers ring out from the away end each time Manchester City's Italian goalkeeper touches the ball.
Newcastle 0-0 Barcelona
First chance falls to Barcelona and Fermin Lopez, who netted twice at the weekend. His shot from outside the box goes miles wide though.
Man City 0-0 Napoli

This is what this football club does. When they pull together they do it. Black and white shirts everywhere.
The fans are going to play their part. The noise levels are flying.
Under way in the four late games.

Let me tell you by the way these fans are flying their flags, tonight means everything.
They want to get over the line. The noise in here, they want tonight to be special and it'll be special with a win.

St James’ Park is alive.
This is a real attack on the senses. The noise is deafening and the Wor Flags fan group have unfurled a huge AC/DC themed display – ‘Newcastle United back in black and white’.
What a night in store.

Image source, Getty ImagesThere are no surprises in European football any more - the big clubs have spent the better part of 30 years killing them off. I think Qarabag will be better than many expect, based on their Europa League form last year, and Galatasaray and Athletic Bilbao might offer a bit of variety in the last 16.
But in terms of actually progressing into the latter stages, it has to be Napoli, given the depth of squad Antonio Conte has built. Yep, that's right: this year's dark horses are... the champions of Italy.

There are some slight changes to the competition since last season.

I think Newcastle pace attack is going to cause Barca the world of problems tonight, particularly with their high line that they play.

There were loud cheers at the Etihad Stadium when Kevin de Bruyne's name was read out earlier.
The reaction was less positive for Scott McTominay and Rasmus Hojlund.
I suspect all three are fully motivated for their own different reasons tonight.
The Champions League was revamped before the 2024-25 season with a new 36-team league phase.
In the expanded tournament each side plays eight different teams - four at home and four away - in the league phase.
Teams who finish in the top eight automatically qualify for the last 16, while those placing ninth to 24th will compete in a two-legged knockout play-off for the chance to join them.
Sides who finish 25th or lower will be eliminated - and will not drop into the Europa League.
