Match background • Leverkusen have not reached the quarter-finals since 2001/02, the season they finished runners-up. Their last foray into the knockout rounds, in 2011/12, ended with a heavy defeat against FC Barcelona – 3-1 at home and 7-1 in Spain. • Paris were quarter-finalists last term for the first time since 1994/95 and will be optimistic of reaching the last eight again given their 27-game unbeaten home record. The last visiting team to prevail in Paris in UEFA competition were Hapoel Tel-Aviv FC, 4-2 winners in the UEFA Cup group stage in November 2006. • Paris have won all 14 UEFA competition ties when they have recorded a first-leg away victory, most recently against Valencia CF in last season's round of 16 when a 2-1 triumph in Spain preceded a 1-1 draw at the Parc des Princes. • Leverkusen have lost all nine ties in which they suffered a home first-leg defeat, including against SL Benfica in last season's UEFA Europa League round of 32 (0-1 home, 1-2 away). Indeed, only once in those nine ties did they record a second-leg victory. • In the group stage, Leverkusen lost 4-2 at Manchester United FC, drew 0-0 at FC Shakhtar Donetsk and won 1-0 at Real Sociedad de Fútbol – their first UEFA Champions League victory outside Germany in 11 years and 16 matches, qualifying included. • It is five years ago since a Paris side including Zoumana Camara won their only previous two-legged tie against Bundesliga opposition, 5-1 on aggregate against VfL Wolfsburg in the 2008/09 UEFA Cup round of 32. Guillaume Hoarau (2) earned them a 2-0 home win in the first leg on 18 February 2009 before Péguy Luyindula (2) and Jérôme Rothen secured a 3-1 away victory. Claude Makelele, now the Parisians' assistant coach, was an unused substitute in the home leg. • Paris are unbeaten at home against German clubs: W4 D1 L0. • Gonzalo Castro, Simon Rolfes and substitute Stefan Kiessling are the only survivors of Leverkusen's last trip to France for a 2-1 first-leg loss at RC Lens in the 2006/07 UEFA Cup round of 16. Leverkusen went on to win that tie 4- 2 on aggregate and have a 100% record over two legs against French sides having also overcome FC Nantes (5-1 agg) in the 1994/95 UEFA Cup quarter-finals and Toulouse FC (2-1 agg) in the 1987/88 UEFA Cup second round. • Ulf Kirsten scored the only goal when Leverkusen last won at Ligue 1 opposition, beating Olympique Lyonnais 1-0 in the 2001/02 UEFA Champions League group stage. It remains their only victory in France, where their record reads W1 D2 L2. Team ties • Coaches Sami Hyypiä and Laurent Blanc met on the field of play when the former's Finland side lost 1-0 to France in a June 1998 friendly in Helsinki. Hyypiä came out on top four years later, though, when his Liverpool FC side won 1-0 at Blanc's Manchester United in the only Premier League fixture they contested. • Hyypiä was in the Liverpool team beaten 3-2 on aggregate by Olympique de Marseille in the 2003/04 UEFA Cup fourth round. He had mixed fortunes against OM in the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League with Liverpool, losing 1-0 at home but winning 4-0 away. • Blanc suffered a 2001/02 UEFA Champions League semi-final defeat at the hands of Leverkusen, his Manchester United side losing on away goals after following up a 2-2 home draw with a 1-1 draw at the BayArena. The following season, Blanc's United faced Leverkusen again in the first group stage, winning 2-1 away and 2-0 at home. • As France coach, Blanc oversaw a 2-1 friendly success over Germany in February 2012 in Bremen, where Jérémy Ménez and Lars Bender both appeared as substitutes.
