• AC Milan vs PSG Prediction: Champions League Match on 07.11.2023

Dortmund remain in the mix

It’s week four of Champions League Group F, and things are beginning to warm up as we approach an exciting climax. PSG is the current pool leader after collecting six points from a possible nine, meaning they sit two points better off than Borussia Dortmund in second, with Newcastle United back in third on goal difference. The winner of this game will likely progress to become the main danger to PSG’s dominance. They hold the home advantage, and if they perform at their best, Borussia has every chance of beating Newcastle and opening a three-point cushion over the Brits.

Borussia Dortmund prepared for this potentially season-defining game with an even split, showing one win, one draw, and a defeat from their previous three outings. It took them three attempts to get off the mark. Still, the Bundesliga side eventually claimed that elusive win in their most recent Champions League outing after losing their first game, drawing their second outing, and taking a win on matchday three. Back-to-back victories against Newcastle would see them put one foot in the knockout stages, especially if PSG beats AC Milan, as they’re expected to by the leading pundits.

Magpies face a must-win game

Newcastle’s involvement in the Champions League surprised many followers of European football, not least the Magpies’ fans who remember following the club in the English Championship not too many years ago after they were relegated from the Premier League. Newcastle is a side improving fast, and they’re capable of becoming a regular feature in one of UEFA’s three competitions. The squad lacks a little belief, but that won’t be the case if they can secure a critical win in Germany on Tuesday evening.

Newcastle are third in Champions League Group F, with their stats showing one win, one draw, and a defeat, scoring four goals and conceding two. The English side knows they must ramp up those scoring charts, but they’ll face a tough opponent in Borussia Dortmund at home. The locals aren’t unbeatable, but they are well-organised and fit, meaning the Magpies must be at their best to get anything of note from this trip to Germany. The visitors beat Arsenal 1-0 at St James Park on Saturday in the Premier League.

Borussia v Newcastle prediction

Borussia Dortmund did beat Newcastle last time in England, and many football experts and pundits expect them to do the double over their less experienced opponents. Back-to-back wins would move Dortmund one step closer to qualifying, opening a three-point advantage over their nearest rivals with just six points left to aim for in this campaign. The locals will want to start strong, get the crowd onside, and score the first goal.

Losing their last match doesn’t make this a must-win game for Newcastle, but that’s not far from being true. The Magpies have performed better than expected in a challenging group, but performing well isn’t enough for a club with their lofty ambitions. They must ensure they’re playing European football post-Christmas, either with a top-two finish or by ending third and dropping into the Europa League. The pressure is all on the away team.
