What channel is Union SG vs Newcastle on? How to watch Champions League clash

Newcastle are aiming to recover from a last-minute defeat to Arsenal as they prepare to face Belgian side Union SG in the Champions League. The Magpies have had a rocky start to the 2025/26 season, securing just one victory in six Premier League games.

Their 2-1 defeat to the Gunners - marked by a decisive goal from Gabriel in the 96th minute - sent them tumbling to 15th place in the table.

Eddie Howe's squad also find themselves languishing at the bottom end of the Champions League table after their first match, with Barcelona securing a 2-1 victory to take back to Spain.

Attention now shifts to Union SG as the Magpies gear up for their first European away game of the new season against the Belgian side. Newcastle's upcoming opponents are on a 10-match unbeaten streak, including a 3-1 win over PSV in the Champions League.
