Newcastle vs. Barcelona: Schedule, TV channel, and where to watch today's Champions League match online.
The 2025-26 Champions League season is off to a strong start for FC Barcelona , one of the title favorites. Hansi Flick's team will travel to England to face Newcastle United at St. James' Park, an opponent and a venue that will test the Blaugrana's form.
Barça faces the Magpies after thrashing Valencia in La Liga (6-0) , and will do so with a team short on minutes thanks to the rotations made by the German coach. The only stumbling block the Blaugrana could face is the absence of their star player, Lamine Yamal, who has been injured since the international break.
The match will mark the debut in the top continental competition for one of the team's new pillars, goalkeeper Joan García, who has already made a strong impression so far in the league. Also impressive is Marcus Rahsford, who is already starting to find his feet in his new shirt.
Opposite them, in addition to a great atmosphere and a team full of confidence after their victory over Wolverhampton, the Spanish champions will face the surprising Nick Woltemade , who is already scoring goals and causing a stir for the English team after his signing this summer from Stuttgart.
Kickoff for the 2025-26 Champions League matchday one between Newcastle United and FC Barcelona is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. this Thursday, September 18.
The exciting clash at St. James' Park can be watched live on the M+ Champions League and M+ Champions League 4 channels.
Of course, the match and everything that happens during it can be followed in real time on the ABC website, where readers will find the most detailed coverage of the match once the referee blows the final whistle.
