Hello and welcome to Chronicle Live's coverage of Newcastle United's trip to Paris Saint-Germain. The Magpies are in the French capital ready to try and save their Champions League hopes.
Eddie Howe spoke with the media on Monday evening, admitting his side is still facing an injury crisis. Joe Willock and Sean Longstaff both missed Saturday's win over Chelsea and will play no part in the PSG clash.
Lewis Miley, therefore, will likely get the nod again after impressing on his home debut in recent days. However, there will be no place for Alex Murphy and Amadou Diallo due to UEFA rules.
Stick with us throughout the afternoon and evening for all the build up, match updates and post-match reaction from the Parc des Princes.
Robbed...
But UEFA's own rules show PSG call was NOT the right call!
Player ratings from France
Who impressed?

Report from Paris
Heartbreak in the city of love...
How NUFC go through
Newcastle now need to beat Milan at St James' Park and hope PSG don't beat Dortmund.
This result will sting for some time, however.
Full-time. Newcastle robbed.
It's a point for Newcastle when it should be three.
A late Mbappe penalty earns a point for PSG.
That penalty call will be the only talking point in the coming hours.
That is never, ever, ever, a penalty.
Newcastle absolutely robbed in the Parc des Princes.
Mbappe scores.
That is absolutely scandalous.
Never a penalty.
Mbappe with a stunning penalty.
Penalty given...
Dembele kicks the ball off Livramento's CHEST and onto his arm.
Penalty given.
Ref going to the monitor...
He's been told to go check.
It would be such a shame this.
Handball being checked.
PSG players surround ref
They want a penalty! Check taking place.
Someone booked - no idea who!
Barcola blasts over
PSG work it down the right and cross to the back post. Barcola volleys it over as he leans back. Poor finish, should be getting it on target.
Luis Enrique fuming on the touchline. Pope probably going to get booked here for constant timewasting...
Mbappe should score
Mbappe knocks Schar off the ball and blasts one straight at Pope. It bounces off the goalkeeper and falls back to Mbappe who BLASTS one across goal.
Inches wide.
Pope holds it
Deep cross from Asensio and if Barcola had got a flick, it's a goal. He misses it and Pope gathers.
THIS IS EXCRUCIATING.
More PSG changes on the way
Goncalo Ramos - a one time Newcastle United target - is coming on up front. Danilo, the centre-back, is off.
OH MY GOD
How. Have. PSG. Not. Scored.
Hernandez drills a low ball across the box and Dembele pokes it wide from THREE yards. Schar does well to put him off.
Newcastle looking leggy
... and who can blame them! They've got no subs to bring on!
PSG trying to break Newcastle's low block.
Hakimi blasts over
Miles over from the right-back.
80 minutes gone. Newcastle camped in their own half. Asensio about to come on.
No penalty again...
Check complete... Another close call.
Bruno kicked it onto Miley's arm from close range - not Schar!
PSG want another penalty
Ball kicked onto the arm of Schar from close range. Totally accidental. VAR check.
Donnarumma booked in protest.
PSG turning the screw
Total domination of possession here. Newcastle need to keep it tight at the back.
Dortmund 3-1 up.
Not given...
Gordon and Hakimi collide but it's minimal and Hakimi goes down easy.
VAR say no penalty.
PSG want a penalty...
Hakimi goes down. VAR checking this. Referee was having none of it.
What a save!
PSG work it well and a ball is played across the six yards box to Barcola. First time strike, harder to miss than score but my god Pope has pulled off a worldie save. Off his knee, onto his arm. Stunner.
Barcola has just missed another close-range effort after going himself and hitting one into the side netting.
