Newcastle have the home crowd behind them at St. James' Park, but PSV look like the more complete side right now, with stronger momentum and a higher overall level across the pitch. Newcastle can still make this uncomfortable in spells, yet PSV should create the cleaner chances and are better placed to avoid defeat. With both teams carrying attacking threat, goals are likely, but the away side’s structure gives them the safer path to a result.
