Match Facts

  • This will be the first ever meeting between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen in major European competition. Bayern Munich won their last match against German opposition in the UEFA Champions League against Borussia Dortmund in the 2012-13 final, whilst Bayer Leverkusen last faced German opposition in the 2007-08 UEFA Cup, when they were defeated 3-2 by Hamburger SV.

  • Under Xabi Alonso, Bayer Leverkusen are unbeaten in their six matches against Bayern Munich across all competitions (W3 D3). They’ve kept a clean sheet in three of their last four against them, after not keeping any in their previous 15 games against Bayern beforehand (42 goals conceded in those 15 matches).

  • Bayern Munich have won each of their last three games against German opposition in European competition, one more victory than across their previous eight matches against sides from the same country (W2 D1 L5).

  • Bayer Leverkusen have lost just one of their four games against German opposition in European competition (W2 D1), keeping a clean sheet in three of those matches.

  • Bayern Munich have lost just one of their last 11 home games played at the UEFA Champions League last 16 stage (W9 D1), a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool in March 2019. Across those 11 matches, the Bavarians have scored 41 goals in total.

  • Bayer Leverkusen have won just one of their prior ten UEFA Champions League Round of 16 games (D1 L8), a 1-0 win over Atlético Madrid in February 2015, though they were still eliminated by the Spanish side in the tie.

  • Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer could make his 150th UEFA Champions League appearance in this game (currently on 149). In doing so, he’d become just the second goalkeeper to reach this milestone in the competition, after Iker Casillas (177 total appearances).

  • Florian Wirtz has been directly involved in seven goals in the UEFA Champions League for Bayer Leverkusen this season (six goals, one assist) – only Michael Ballack in 2001-02 has ever recorded more for the club in a season (9).

  • Since joining Bayern Munich in August 2023, no player has scored more UEFA Champions League goals than Harry Kane (15 – level with Kylian Mbappé). In that time frame, the Englishman also leads all players in the competition for overall goal contributions recorded (20 – 15 goals, five assists).

  • Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich has completed more passes (883), made more line-breaking passes (174) and created more chances (30) than any other player in the UEFA Champions League this season.
