Champions League stats

Liverpool will be looking to become the first English team to reach three consecutive Champions League/European Cup finals.
Over the past two Champions League campaigns, Liverpool have scored more goals (65) and won more games (15) than any other side in the competition.

Liverpool are unbeaten at Anfield in all European competition since October 2014 (W16 D6), since a 0-3 loss to Real Madrid in the Champions League group stage of the 2014-15 season.

Pep Guardiola reached the semi-finals in each of his first seven seasons as manager in the Champions League but hasn’t made it past the quarter-finals in each of his three seasons with Man City.

Chelsea have reached the knockout stages of the Champions League 14 times in their previous 15 appearances.

Chelsea have the best win rate in the Champions League group stages (inc. group stage 1st and 2nd) among all English teams (min. 7 games), with the Blues winning 59% of their games (57/96).

Tottenham have lost three of their last four Champions League matches (W1), as many defeats as they’d registered in their previous 18 (W11 D4 L3).
