Borussia Dortmund vs Newcastle LIVE! Champions League match stream, latest score and goal updates today

Borussia Dortmund vs Newcastle LIVE!

Eddie Howe and his players will know another defeat tonight will leave their hopes of reaching the Champions League knockout stage hanging up a thread. Dortmund ran out 1-0 winners at St James' Park last month and will be confident of a repeat result in front of their own fans amid then imposing Signal Iduna Park atmosphere.

The visitor's injury woes have further worsened with Dan Burn joining Alexander Isak, Harvey Barnes and Sven Botman on the sidelines, meaning Tito Livramento should get the nod at right-back, with Kieran Tripper moving to the opposite flank. Dortmund are sweating on Emre Can's fitness while Felix Nmecha will hope to start after his goal in the reverse fixture.

Newcastle, though, have shown they can mix it with Europe's elite after a big win over Paris Saint-Germain and a credible draw away at AC Milan. Do not count them out tonight. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog.

Borussia Dortmund vs Newcastle latest news

19:34 , Alex Young

90min: Longstaff tries to find Almiron but it's another overhit cross. Newcastle just not been at it today.

19:30 , Alex Young

85min: Are doing all they can do and that's try to salvage something. But Dortmund are ready to pick them off.

It's PSG away up next for Newcastle. Not looking good.

GOAL!

19:23 , Alex Young

80min: That should be that! Newcastle were pushing for an equaliser but Trippier's poor free kick delivery lets Dortmund break, it's two on two and Brandt goes the whole way to fire home.

He gets his goal!

19:21 , Alex Young

75min: Talking of busy players, Brandt is involved in everything tonight and still desperate to add to the goal tally tonight. His latest attempt is cross-cum-shot towards the back post which evades everyone.

19:16 , Alex Young

71min: I think Livramento has now gone to left-back, which is a surprise. Meanwhile, Pope is faking an injury while Joelinton and Willock are handed a note to read by the Newcastle bench.

19:12 , Alex Young

68min: Gordon is so busy, such a fun player. He tries to wriggle into the area, and gets past two players but then loses the ball.

19:10 , Alex Young

66min: There's definitely a goal in this for Newcastle, they look full of confidence and invention since half-time. Dortmund are ready to pounce, though.

19:08 , Alex Young

63min: Schar has a go from behind the halfway line. Kobel was off his line, but not that far.

19:03 , Alex Young

59min: Referee gives a goal kick! Bizarre.

19:02 , Alex Young

58min: End to end, this. Brandt is desperate to score and almost sneaks a fine effort inside the near post but Pope at full stretch sends it behind.

SITTER!

19:00 , Alex Young

55min: How did Joelinton miss? Incredible cross from Livramento and it's on a plate for Joelinton to just nod in and sends his header a yard wide.

Harder to miss.

18:58 , Alex Young

51min: Up the other end, Brandt drives into the area, shapes to shoot but loses the ball under his feet. No matter though as no Newcastle players pounces on it so he picks it back up and forces Pope into a smart save.

18:56 , Alex Young

49min: Great chance for Newcastle as Livramento gets down the right and fires a low cross for Gordon to tap in but the keeper gets a fingertip to it.

18:52 , Alex Young

48min: Slight pause in play as Dortmund fans are throwing rubbish onto the pitch for some reason.

Second half!

18:50 , Alex Young

And Almiron is on for Hall, as predicted.

The second half is underway.

18:49 , Alex Young

Oh dear. Gordon is on but it is Wilson who is off.

18:48 , Alex Young

Teams are on the way back out.

18:39 , Alex Young

The hosts are good value for their lead but Newcastle improved after going behind.

It wouldn't be a surprise to see Almiron and/or Gordon introduced soon as Livramento is not cut out an advanced wide attacking role.

The same goes for Hall, so there could be a rejig at full-back to keep Livramento on.

We shall see.

Half-time!

18:33 , Alex Young

47min: That's your lot for the first half.

18:32 , Alex Young

46min: Good save from Kobel to deny Joelinton with a decent standing header from 12 yards. Newcastle's best chance!

18:32 , Alex Young

45min: One minute added on.

18:31 , Alex Young

43min: Hopeful shouts of handball from the Dortmund fans after the ball hits Livramento, but there's nothing doing. Howe tells Almiron to go for a jog.

18:28 , Alex Young

41min: Trippier's passing has been all over the shop tonight. Livramento, not a winger, being the winger ahead of him perhaps isn't helping as he looks for alternative options.

18:25 , Alex Young

38min: Oof, close! A ball is floated over the top as Joelinton beats the offside trap but he can't quite bring it under control.

18:23 , Alex Young

36min: A write that and the Sabitzer goes close to adding a second with a rash first-time effort from 20 yards.

18:21 , Alex Young

34min: Newcastle playing with some confidence and Dortmund letting them pass the ball around. I'm not sure that's the wisest move from the hosts.

18:19 , Alex Young

32min: Trippier whips it in and Lascelles rises highest but it's easy for Kobel in goal.

18:18 , Alex Young

31min: A good response from Newcastle, who are now the team bossing possession since the goal and have forced a few corners. Trippier about to take the second...

18:15 , Alex Young

28min: Hall is really struggling with the pace of the game. Already on the booking and looks a bag of nerves because of it. I'd be surprised if we see him in the second half.

GOAL!

18:14 , Alex Young

26min: It's been coming!

Fullkrug with his first Champions League goal as he lashes home from close range after Newcastle simply don't clear their lines.

18:11 , Alex Young

24min: Trippier is struggling. Not with his fitness, just struggling to cope with Dortmund at the moment.

18:08 , Alex Young

21min: Finally Newcastle get out through Willock, who darts down the left flank and looks for Wilson's dart into the area but his cross is a good five yards over the striker's head.

18:07 , Alex Young

20min: Dortmund having so much luck with a simple hoof up field, winning the first header and then they are 35 yards from Newcastle's goal.

18:05 , Alex Young

18min: Newcastle need to ride this storm. They have plenty of quality on the counter but it's their defence which is shaking.

18:03 , Alex Young

16min: Another big save from Pope as Adeyemi finds a spot of space in the area to fire off an effort, but again it is straight at the keeper.

18:00 , Alex Young

13min: Fullkrug forces Pope into a first save. Plenty of power from the edge of the area but it's straight down the goalkeeper's throat.

17:58 , Alex Young

11min: Dortmund on top as they force a corner, which causes panic in the Newcastle area before Joelinton boots the ball clear. They come again but Brandt is offside.

17:57 , Alex Young

10min: Oof, Hall already into the book for dragging back Fullkrug. A bit of a harsh yellow card.

17:55 , Alex Young

9min: It's Trippier at right-back, Hall on the left and Livramento bombing down the right wing.

17:54 , Alex Young

7min: Almost right on cue Brandt has a pop from the right after finding space alongside Hall, but Dortmund's top scorer this season gets under the ball.

17:52 , Alex Young

5min: An even start to the game, with both teams able to get their foot on the ball but nothing in the way of sights of goal.

17:49 , Alex Young

3min: Willock goes down after a heavy challenge from Hummels. He'll be OK but that was a tad nasty.

Kick-off!

17:46 , Alex Young

1min: We're up and running in Dortmund!

17:43 , Alex Young

...and here they come. Newcastle in a familiar-looking shade of green.

17:42 , Alex Young

The teams are in the tunnel.

17:37 , Alex Young

Kick-off is fast approaching.

Terzic wants to move on from Bayern drubbing

16:09 , Alex Young

"We were really honest in our analysis and then tried to take the lessons from that to look forward and to focus on the next task, which is tomorrow.

"Why we are confident is that we were already way better three days before the Bayern match (against Hoffenheim in the DFB Cup) and also two weeks ago in Newcastle. Now our focus is on the next task."

Howe on tactics preparations

16:01 , Alex Young

"It's inbuilt in me, I think every game is a must-win and the term is probably overused in football."

"But it's the only way that we prepare. We prepare to win every game, we never have anything else in our minds and we will prepare to win this one."

Score prediction

15:49 , Alex Young

It’s difficult to see a way in which a depleted Newcastle team beat a Dortmund side in this kind of form, Bayern result aside.

Dortmund to win 2-1.

Newcastle team news

15:41 , Alex Young

Dan Burn will be out for a long spell with a back injury, manager Eddie Howe revealed yesterday.

The centre-back landed on his back after jumping for a header in Saturday's 1-0 home Premier League win over Arsenal and did not return for the second half after suffering a spinal injury.

"Dan Burn will be out for some time. Long-term problem, a couple of months is a speculative number. He landed on his spine. A huge blow," Howe told a news conference on Monday.

"It's not just one position we're losing, we're losing his ability to play centre-back as well. But it's something we have to roll with.

Sven Botman, Alexander Isak, Harvey Barnes, Elliot Anderson and Jacob Murphy are all also out.

Dortmund team news

15:30 , Alex Young

Borussia Dortmund have doubts over skipper Emre Can and defender Ramy Bensebaini.

Manager Edin Terzic has warned Borussia Dortmund they will have to be even better than they were at St James' Park if they are to win tonight.

He said: "We need to improve because we know that they are not happy with the way that they performed at St James' Park and they will want to do much better tomorrow, so if they are going to do it better, we have to do it better.

"That's something we have focused on, this is something we're going to talk about with the team this afternoon, again to be ready for tomorrow, and then we've got to do everything to also use the chance to get a home win tomorrow and make a big step in the group."
