Paris - Bayern, we meet again
The final of the latest edition of the Champions League, much will be expected of the clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals.
Everybody is looking forward to it, and it's also a first! The two clubs have never met in a two-legged knockout tie (8 group stage meetings, 1 in last season's final) in the Champions League. Note that there has never been a draw in these meetings between the Parisians and the club from Bavaria. In 9 European matches, Paris' record reads (5 victories, 4 defeats).
The quarter-final's outcome looks uncertain, and it's difficult not to remember the final from last season in Lisbon, that finished with the narrowest of scorelines... And if Paris have only won one of their last 4 matches against Bayern the German club are the team Paris have beaten most often in Europe (5 times).
In 9 matches, each of the teams has scored 12 goals. It's proof of the unpredictable nature of this contest, that will be decided, once again, by small details.
