St James’ Park, with a capacity of 52,719, has a reputation as one of the Premier League’s most intimidating stadia for visiting teams.
These sides played out a thrilling FA Cup third-round tie here last season, which ended 3-3 after extra time before Newcastle progressed on penalties.
But Bournemouth got their revenge a few months later with a 2-1 victory after Adrien Truffert’s late winner.
Hopefully, this stage will deliver even more drama today.
