What is at stake for Qarabag vs. Newcastle

Eddie Howe's side come into this clash as clear favourites and will be hoping to follow up their FA Cup win over Aston Villa with another away victory. 

While Qarabag FK finished 22nd in the league phase, compared to Newcastle’s 12th-placed finish, they know they face a difficult challenge and will be hoping to make the Tofiq Bahramov Stadium a fortress.

The hosts come into Wednesday's tie on the back of successive league victories, after a 1-0 win against Mil-Mugan leaves them one point off first place in the Azerbaijan Premier League.  

A place in the next stage of the Champions League will only be confirmed when the sides meet again at St James' Park on Tuesday, 24 February.
