After rising to the top of Group F on Matchday 2, Newcastle United will aim to stay there on Wednesday against a Borussia Dortmund team in need of points.Newcastle's first Champions League campaign in two decades delivered a night to remember with the team's 4-1 defeat of Paris Saint-Germain earlier this month, which gave them four points from two games. Dortmund, by comparison, have had a lackluster start to their European season with one point in two games and no goals scored so far.

Here's what you need to know before tuning in.

Storylines

Newcastle United: The English side is unbeaten since their Aug. 27 loss to Liverpool in Premier League play. Their win over PSG on Matchday 2 will go down as their most impressive result during that stretch. The question for Newcastle at this point is about just how far they can go, but their consistency suggests that they have a realistic shot in advancing out of their very competitive group.

Alexander Isak has four goals in the team's last five games and is expected to be a contributor against Dortmund, while Miguel Almiron and Sean Longstaff have notably also pitched in on the team's attacking efforts in recent matches.

Borussia Dortmund: Dortmund have yet to lose in Bundesliga play this season but have not been able to translate that success into Champions League points. Their most recent European outing was a 0-0 draw against AC Milan and across two games have mustered just four shots on target without scoring any. Finally finding a Champions League goal will likely be the primary objective for Dortmund and will be crucial as they aim to make it to the round of 16.

Julian Brandt, Niclas Fullkrug and Marco Reus have been frequent goalscorers in the Bundesliga and should be the focus of Dortmund's attack against Newcastle. Additionally, Gio Reyna could be set to make his first Champions League appearance of the season after recovering from injury and if his recent U.S. men's national team form is anything to go by, he could provide a boost for his club team just when they need it.

Prediction

Newcastle may have overperformed on their expectations against PSG, but they just might be good enough to keep a strong run of form going against a Dortmund side that feels incomplete. It will not be easy for the hosts, but they will likely get the job done. Pick: Newcastle 1, Dortmund 0
