Barcelona vs Newcastle United Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 03/18/26

A 96th-minute penalty from Lamine Yamal kept Barcelona’s unbeaten streak intact at St. James’ Park last week, and the Catalan giants should be able to get the win back in front of their own fans in this 2nd-leg tie. Hansi Flick’s La Liga leaders have not failed to win a home game since the start of October, scoring a massive 50 goals in 15 successive wins since that defeat to PSG. Newcastle held their own last week and probably deserved to win the first leg, but they have lost 3 of their last 7 games and have failed to win in 5 of their last 9 on the road. With Barcelona in such fine form at home, they look good value to claim the win and progress to the quarterfinals on Wednesday.
