Match Facts

  • Chelsea have only lost one of their last nine meetings with Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League (W2 D6), although that lone defeat did come in their most recent clash (0-3 at the Camp Nou in March 2018); a result that saw them eliminated at the last 16 stage (lost 1-4 on aggregate).

  • Barcelona have only won away to Chelsea on one of eight previous attempts in Europe (D2 L5): a 2-1 victory in February 2006 in the UEFA Champions League. Since then, they have played at Stamford Bridge on four occasions without recording a victory (D2 L2).

  • Since 2013-14, Barcelona have only lost two of their nine away games against English sides in the UEFA Champions League (W6 D1). Those two defeats came against Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in November 2016 (1-3) and Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool in May 2019 (0-4).

  • English teams have won nine of their last 10 games against Spanish sides in the UEFA Champions League (L1), with the only exception being Barcelona’s win at Newcastle in September (2-1). Since that Barcelona win, English sides have won four in a row without conceding against Spanish opponents (Arsenal 4-0 Atlético, Villarreal 0-2 Man City, Liverpool 1-0 Real Madrid, Newcastle 2-0 Athletic).

  • Barcelona have scored in each of their last 24 games in the UEFA Champions League (67 goals in total); the longest current run by any team. Their manager Hansi Flick has also never seen an opponent keep a clean sheet against one of his teams in the competition (36/36 – 18 with Barcelona and Bayern Munich).

  • In terms of average age, Chelsea have the youngest starting XI in the UEFA Champions League this season (23y 278d). The Blues have handed starts to 14 different players aged 23 or younger in the current tournament, which is also the most of any side.

  • Barcelona have been shown the most yellow cards (12) in the UEFA Champions League this season, despite making the fifth-fewest fouls (37) so far. In addition, no team has had more different players with a yellow (8) in the current tournament than Hansi Flick’s side.

  • Marcus Rashford has been directly involved in five goals in four UEFA Champions League games for Barcelona this season (4 goals, 1 assist). The only player with more than five goal involvements through their first five appearances for the Catalans in the competition is Hristo Stoichkov (8 – 5 goals, 3 assists in 1994).

  • Estêvão is Chelsea’s top scorer in the UEFA Champions League this season (2 goals), scoring in each of his first two starts in the competition. He could become the second youngest player to score in each of his first three Champions League starts (18y 215 on the day of this game), after Kylian Mbappé for Monaco in 2017 (18y 113d).

  • Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong has completed 94.6% of his passes made under high-intensity pressure in the UEFA Champions League this season (140/148), the highest completion rate of any player (min. 50 attempted).
