Check out the key numbers ahead of the UEFA Champions League semi-final first leg between Paris Saint-Germain and FC Bayern München, which kicks off at 21:00 CEST tonight at the Parc des Princes.

Six men have played for both teams: Juan Bernat, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Kingsley Coman, Lucas Hernandez, Renato Sanches and Tanguy Kouassi.

With seven defeats against Paris, Bayern have lost to Les Rouge et Bleu more often in continental competitions than any other team, including FC Barcelona (six defeats) and Real Madrid CF (five defeats).

Including friendlies, this will be Bayern’s 15th game at the Parc des Princes, which will see the Bavarians break SL Benfica’s record for the most trips made to Paris’s home ground in a European competition (14).

Les Parisiens have welcomed German teams to the Parc des Princes on 15 previous occasions – including Bayern themselves seven times, Borussia Dortmund four times, RB Leipzig twice, VfL Wolfsburg once and Bayer Leverkusen once – earning 10 wins, one draw and four losses.

This will be Paris Saint-Germain’s 17th competitive fixture against FCB, with the capital club’s record standing at seven wins and nine losses. Die Roten will thereby become Paris’s most regular opponent in European competitions, again just ahead of FC Barcelona (16 meetings).

Les Rouge et Bleu have scored at least once in each of their last 21 competitive outings, while their all-time record in this respect was set during the 2023–2024 season (26 games with at least one goal scored).

Les Parisiens have played a total of 36 matches against German opposition – 16 against Bayern, eight against Dortmund, five against Leipzig, three against Leverkusen, two against Wolfsburg, one against Schalke and one against Stuttgart – racking up 18 wins, four draws and 14 losses.

Luis Enrique’s men have scored 38 goals in the UEFA Champions League so far this season, thereby equalling the club’s best-ever UCL goal tally, which came just last season.

If he plays tonight, Nuno Mendes will be making his 50th UEFA Champions League appearance for Paris.

119

With 119 UCL games under his belt, Marquinhos is Paris Saint-Germain’s all-time top appearance maker in European competitions.

187

This will be Les Rouge et Bleu’s 187th match of all time in the UEFA Champions League / European Cup, where their record stands at 102 wins, 33 draws and 51 losses.

307

Across all European competitions, Les Parisiens have played 307 matches, with their record this time standing at 164 wins, 66 draws and 77 losses. Note: these figures take into account both the UEFA Super Cup and the UEFA Intertoto Cup.
