1
This will be the eighth meeting between Paris Saint-Germain and Borussia Dortmund in European competition, with both sides winning two games apiece to date (three draws). All four of the victories recorded in this fixture have been by the team playing at home.
2
Borussia Dortmund have faced Paris Saint-Germain away from home in Europe on three occasions, but have never won (D1 L2) or scored on any of those trips. They were beaten 2-0 away to the French side in this season’s group stage in September, and only managed one shot on target in that game.
3
Paris Saint-Germain are aiming to reach a European Cup/UEFA Champions League final for just the second time (previously in 2019-20), while Borussia Dortmund could do so for the third time in their history, after 1996-97 and 2012-13; the latter being the last time the final of this competition was played at Wembley.
4
Following their 6-4 aggregate win over Barcelona in the previous round, Paris Saint-Germain could become the first side to lose the first leg in both the quarter-finals and semi-finals in a UEFA Champions League campaign and still progress to reach the final.
5
Paris Saint-Germain have only failed to score in two of their last 38 home games in the UEFA Champions League (93 goals scored in this run), with FC Bayern München being the team to keep a clean sheet on both of those occasions (1-0 in February 2023 and April 2021).
