Find the key figures before probably the most difficult test for PSG in their group stage.
– Bayern remains on six victories in all competitions without conceding a single goal, for an overall record of 17-0. Against Paris Saint-Germain, this series goes to three successes without a single goal conceded: 1-0 in Paris then 2-0 in Munich in the 2023 round of 16, after the 1-0 in Paris in the 2021 quarter-final return.
– Even more broadly, the Munich residents remain on 18 matches without defeat at home in the Champions League, to be broken down into fourteen victories and four draws. Precision finally bringing hope, their last setback at the Allianz Arena in C1 dates back to April 2021 against… Paris Saint-Germain, 2-3 in the quarter-final first leg.
In six shots on target, Neuer conceded five goals
– Much less reassuring, PSG has always conceded a goal in its last 20 away matches in the Champions League, for a negative final record of seven wins, four draws and seven defeats. The last clean sheet on the road dates back to October 2020 at Basaksehir Istanbul (0-2 in the group stage).
– Out of six shots on target this season in C1, Manuel Neuer has conceded five goals. The Parisians therefore know more or less what they have to do, and it is not won given their equally catastrophic efficiency ratio… The only save by the German goalkeeper (out at the break during the first match against Dinamo Zagreb) took place during the defeat at Aston Villa (1-0).
– Tuesday evening will be Luis Enrique's 50th match on the bench in the Champions League, 33 with Barça and therefore sixteen with Paris Saint-Germain. The Spanish coach was European champion in his first season with FC Barcelona, winner of Juventus in the final in 2015 (3-1) after eliminating PSG in the quarter-finals (two victories 1-3 then 2-0 ). He will repeat in 2017 for the famous “comeback” (6-1 in the round of 16 second leg after the 4-0 first leg defeat at the Parc).
