Win in Shutout Pick
Newcastle Win in Shutout(-114)

Newcastle won the tie in Baku last week and should only increase their 6-1 aggregate lead over Qarabag in Tuesday’s return leg at St. James’ Park. Eddie Howe’s team did all the hard work in the opening 45 minutes as they raced into a 5-0 lead at the break. The 2nd half was just about keeping it simple and avoiding injury, which they did, although the energy they saved was not enough to get them another good result against Manchester City the following Saturday. This game presents Howe with a great chance to rest and rotate his players ahead of trickier tests to come. The likes of Jacob Murphy, Jacob Ramsey, Will Osula and perhaps even Aaron Ramsdale could come into the starting 11, while this match will be an opportunity for Harvey Barnes to break his 9-game scoring drought. Barnes started in Baku but was benched against City after failing to register with any of his 6 shots last Wednesday.

Qarabag have had a weekend off to lick their wounds after their league game against Netfchi was postponed in advance. Interestingly, they have announced plans to fly out for the 2nd leg on the day before the game – in the afternoon – meaning they will not be in their hotel until midnight at the earliest on Monday. That is hardly ideal, but perhaps shows how little they expect to gain from the trip to Tyneside. Coach Gurban Gurbanov admitted his players could not control the game when the Magpies were on top and that his team could not handle the pace and intensity of the Premier League side. If they are unable to find a way to cope with that on Tuesday then we can expect another heavy defeat.
