The opponents: Olympique Lyon

FC Bayern against Olympique Lyon – the fixture has a long tradition in European football. The teams have crossed swords twice in the Champions League semi-finals (2010 and 2020), with FCB advancing to the final each time. Munich and the seven-time French champions have faced off in ten Champions League matches, with Bayern winning six, drawing two and losing two games.

Lyon made it to the Europa League quarter-finals and finished sixth in Ligue 1 last season to qualify for the Europa League again. The new club management recently avoided forced relegation. Former Bayern player Corentin Tolisso is part of their squad. The 2018 World Champion wore FCB colours from 2017 to 2022, winning five German championship titles. He was part of the club’s sextuple-winning team.
