The UEFA Champions League returns to the fold with another round of matches this week as AC Milan lock horns with Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United side at St. James’ Park on Wednesday.
Newcastle United (also known as Newcastle, Newcastle Unites or Newcastle Utd) and AC Milan (commonly referred to as Milan) meet again 3 months after the Group stage Group F match which ended in a draw 0-0.
