Newcastle United and Borussia Dortmund are two iconic clubs famous for their passionate supporters. They’ve both won two trophies on the European stage, although only Dortmund can boast a major international trophy in their history.

Borussia Dortmund are one of three German clubs to have won the UEFA Champions League, famously winning the competition in the 1996/1997 season.

BVB beat Manchester United in the semi-final before defeating Juventus 3-1 in the final. It remains arguably the greatest day in the club’s history.

Newcastle United have not featured regularly in European competitions, but the Magpies did win the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1969 and the Intertoto Cup in 2006.

The 2023/24 edition of the UEFA Champions League marked their return to Europe’s elite club competition after more than 20 years. It’s been an extraordinarily long time since Newcastle fans celebrated a trophy, although the club appears to be on the rise thanks to their Saudi investors.

Newcastle secured their last major trophy way back in the 1954/55 season, beating Manchester City 3-1 in the FA Cup final. They did reach the Carabao Cup final in the 2022/23 season, but lost 2-0 to Manchester United.
