Newcastle, which was ranked 13th in the Premier League before the game, ushered in the fourth round of the UEFA Champions League. Newcastle played at home against Athletic Bilbao, which was ranked 11th in La Liga before the game.

Newcastle had 3 wins and 1 loss in all 4 games before the match, while Athletic Bilbao's 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses in the 4 games before the Athletic Bilbao game was obviously slightly worse than Newcastle. In the most recent match between the two sides, Newcastle had the upper hand, because Newcastle scored 2 goals and conceded 1 goal in that match to defeat Athletic Bilbao. Therefore, before the game, more fans were full of confidence in Newcastle's home victory over Athletic Bilbao.

Only 8 minutes into the game, Joelinton succeeded in volleying from the right side of the penalty area, but unfortunately it was ruled offside, resulting in the goal being disallowed and Athletic Bilbao escaping.

In the 11th minute of the first half, Trippier on the right side of the frontcourt sent an overhead pass to the goal. 33-year-old Dan Burn met the ball on the left side of the penalty area and rushed to the top, sending the ball into the upper right corner of the goal, helping Newcastle United take the lead.

In the 4th minute of the second half, Barnes made a wonderful pass, and Joelinton jumped up in front of the goal and scored with a header to help Newcastle United gain another victory and expand their lead.

In the end, Newcastle United defeated Athletic Bilbao at their home court and ushered in a 3-game winning streak in the Champions League, while Athletic Bilbao missed a 2-game winning streak in the Champions League.
