The Champions League action continues on Thursday as Newcastle host Spanish giants Barcelona, and you can back our betting tips with this 7/1 bet builder.
Nights like these are exactly what Newcastle fans dreamed of when they first heard of their big-money Saudi takeover.
The Magpies welcome Barca to St James’ Park for what promises to be a special evening in the North East.
But while the spectacle will be incredible, it’s the result that will matter more to Eddie Howe and his men.
Newcastle have flattered to deceive in that department thus far in 2025-26, with one win from their opening four Premier League fixtures.
They showed great fight in defeat against Liverpool after going a man down, and they will need every ounce of that to take points off the Catalan juggernaut that is Barcelona.
The Spanish champions have won three from four in La Liga so far, and sit two points below leaders Real Madrid.
Looking ahead to this one, Barcelona are 27/20 favourites with football betting sites, while Newcastle are priced around 9/5.
Thursday. St. James' Park.

Newcastle Vs Barcelona Betting Tips
- FT Result Newcastle @ 9/5
- Both Teams To Score – YES @ 2/5
- Anthony Gordon to score any time @ 21/10
FT Result Newcastle @ 9/5
Our first pick is to back Newcastle to take an historic victory on Thursday night.
Their domestic form may not have been great so far, but Champions League nights seem to bring out something different in Eddie Howe’s side.
St James’ Park offers a hostile and special atmosphere, and one which we believe will carry Newcastle to the win against Barcelona.
Both Teams To Score – YES @ 2/5
While we think Newcastle will win, we don’t think they’ll keep a clean sheet.
Barcelona are simply too good to be kept out in our opinion, and we therefore think backing both teams to score is a sensible choice.
Anthony Gordon to score any time @ 21/10
Mark Clattenburg slammed Anthony Gordon for his ‘horrible’ tackle on Virgil van Dijk.
The England international has a point to prove after his rash sending off against Liverpool, and will be desperate to atone for the error that has seen him suspended in recent games.
We are therefore backing him to return with a bang and net one against Barcelona.
