    Not sure about this one... It's away from home and a very good set of fans who'll really make some noise.

    They’ve lost 3 times, to Real, Sporting Lisbon and Atalanta. They beat Ajax. Currently 2nd in Ligue 1. Won’t be easy but I think we have enough to surprise them.

    Tbh it not as important as the game vs Everton so they should just play a second string and give players a chance to show something.

    This is why the new format is crap because clubs can easily qualify without stretching their squads.

    There's not much on each game until late in the group stage and the ko rounds.

    We could finish top 8 though, then we don't have to play a play-off round.

    We could potentially rest players against PSG if we are guaranteed top 8, or are in the middle bit and can't get top 8 come that fixture.

    Don't want to surprise them. I just want to beat them.

    Th
    is is my thoughts aswell. Get this game won and we can be confident and rest players. Potentially.

    Everton is a big game mind. Win that and our PL season is back fully on track.

    Looking forward to this one... Great club and fans at Marseille, so it'll be very difficult to get anything... They're right with psg in league this year.

    Breaks the week up nicely when Newcastle are in Europe... Let's hope this time we can get back into at least the conference league.

    People turning their nose up at it will enjoy it if we add another pot next season..... The Europa and conference are the easiest pots to win these days.

    Sure we will go with our strongest side possible, as long as Livramiento and Hall are ready for two games in 4 days.

    Win this and we are in a strong position to qualify automatically for last 16.

    Rambo
    Krafth
    Schar
    Botman
    Burn
    Willock/Ramsey
    Bruno/Tonali
    Miley
    Elanga
    Woltemade
    Barnes

    I’d rest Hall and Livarmento for this one tbh, both just back from injury and then one of Tonali and Bruno - maybe 45 each.

    It's lively over here.

    Get a result, rest those who need a rest, protect those who need protection and give some mins to some squad players.
