Newcastle United vs SS Lazio Tickets

Newcastle United and SS Lazio, two illustrious football clubs hailing from distinct footballing backgrounds, are gearing up for a captivating European showdown.

Despite their incredible fan base, Newcastle United is a club in the midst of a remarkably lengthy trophy drought. Their last major triumph dates back to 1955, when they secured victory over Manchester City in the FA Cup final. Nevertheless, Newcastle is a club that has enjoyed some success in European competitions that no longer exist. They won the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1969 and the Intertoto Cup in 2006. Newcastle’s forays into the UEFA Champions League have been sporadic, with their third group stage participation occurring in the 2023/24 season.

Newcastle United is a club undergoing transformation since the club's acquisition by a Saudi-led consortium in 2021. Unburdened by financial constraints, the Magpies have shrewdly invested in the transfer market, culminating in a respectable fourth-place finish in the 2022/23 Premier League season. This achievement granted them entry into the Champions League for the ensuing season, marking a triumphant return after an absence of more than two decades.

Hailing from the historic city of Rome, SS Lazio is a club that has also featured sporadically in the UEFA Champions League. Like Newcastle, Lazio have also won two trophies in Europe, but are yet to get their hands on the biggest prize of all. The Italian club were the last team to win the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. They won it in the 1998/99 season, before it was abolished and merged into the UEFA Cup. Lazio also won the Super Cup in 1999, beating Manchester United 1-0.

Lazio have twice progressed to the knockout stages of the Champions League, reaching the quarter-finals in 1999/00 and the last 16 in 2020/21.
