About SL Benfica vs Newcastle United Tickets 2024/25

Set to reignite their rivalry on the grand European stage, SL Benfica and Newcastle United are two well-supported football clubs that each bear their own distinctive tales.

Based in the city of Lisbon, SL Benfica stands as the beacon of Portuguese football excellence. During the era of Eusebio, The Eagles soared to remarkable heights with consecutive European Cup victories in 1961 and 1962. A curse was placed on the club by manager Bela Guttman and Benfica fans have witnessed heart-wrenching final losses, one after the other. Benfica are trophyless in Europe since 1962, suffering eight successive defeats in finals, most recently losing to Sevilla in the 2014 UEFA Europa League final.

With their new wealthy investors, Newcastle United is a club experiencing an upward trajectory. Their fortunes have quickly improved since being acquired by the Saudi Public Investment Fund in 2021. They comfortably staved off relegation and secured UEFA Champions League football in the following season under Eddie Howe.

Despite their historical significance in English football, the Magpies have failed to win a major trophy since their FA Cup triumph in 1955. They did win the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1969 and the Intertoto Cup in 2006, but these competitions have since faded into history. The 2023/24 season marked a return to the good times when Newcastle ended their long absence from the UEFA Champions League group stage.

Both Newcastle and Benfica have navigated the tumultuous seas of football fortune, but their loyal supporters are urging their teams towards a major continental trophy.

SL Benfica vs Newcastle United Connections

Former Newcastle winger Laurent Robert bid farewell to St James' Park in 2006, embarking on a brief spell at Benfica. The Frenchman's Portuguese chapter lasted a mere five months before he moved on to Levante UD.

Portuguese centre-back Hélder left his imprint at both Benfica and Newcastle United, to varying degrees. He spent six years at Benfica during two spells and, in 1999, he ventured to Newcastle on loan. Hélder made only eight Premier League appearances in the north-east, but is remembered fondly by many after scoring against Sunderland in the Tyne-Wear derby.
