The Magpies missed a valuable opportunity to really push on towards the Premier League top four at the weekend, having been held to a goalless draw away at Wolves.
That result once again highlighted Newcastle’s struggles away from St James Park, although on home soil in front of the Toon Eddie Howe’s side are a difficult side to beat.
Howe will welcome the chance to play back in front of the Tyneside crowd. Newcastle have lost just one of their last 14 matches at St James’ Park in all competitions, winning 11 and drawing two.
In Europe, their only home defeat in the current Champions League league phase came against Barcelona back in September, with victories in two of their other three matches.
History also favours the hosts.
Newcastle have won seven of their last nine encounters with Dutch opposition, losing just once, and their overall European record at home is equally impressive, with only four defeats in their last 34 continental matches on Tyneside.
PSV Eindhoven arrive in the north east in excellent form.
Peter Bosz’s side have won six consecutive matches across all competitions, with their latest 2-1 victory away at Fortuna Sittard stretching their lead at the top of the Eredivisie to a commanding 16 points. Another domestic title now appears firmly within reach.
Attention now turns to Europe, where PSV still have work to do. They have won two of their six Champions League fixtures so far and sit 21st in the league phase standings, only two points inside the top 24. That leaves little margin for error in their remaining matches.
The Dutch champions will take confidence from previous success on English soil during this campaign. PSV stunned Liverpool with a remarkable 4-1 victory at Anfield earlier in the competition, underlining their ability to rise to the occasion away from home.
Goals have been a constant feature of PSV’s European matches this season, with both teams scoring in each of their six Champions League outings so far. That trend suggests Newcastle’s defence may face a stern examination, even with their strong home record.
With Newcastle eager to turn home dominance into European progress and PSV fighting to secure their place in the knockout phase, Wednesday night’s clash carries significant importance for both clubs.
A charged atmosphere at St James’ Park and two sides in confident form should make for a compelling Champions League contest on Tyneside.
