UEFA Champions League 2nd Semi-Final LIVE: Lyon vs Bayern Munich Head to Head Statistics

Lyon have returned to the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in 10 years, but a familiar foe lies in their path.

As in the 2009-10 season, Lyon must get past Bayern Munich to reach the final.

In that campaign, Bayern eased through 4-0 on aggregate, despite a testing first leg, but then lost to Inter in the showpiece match. Both sides will hope for a change in fortunes as they prepare for a mammoth week in Lisbon.

First, we take a look at their previous clash, the contrasting fortunes that led to Lyon's 10-year absence from the last four and how Houssem Aouar can help stop Bayern.


OLIC OUSTS OL IN THE LAST FOUR

Heading into the two-legged tie in 2010, Lyon had faced Bayern six times in European competition, with the sides winning two matches apiece and drawing the other two.

The scales tipped in Bayern's favour in the first leg in Munich despite Franck Ribery's first-half red card. Jeremy Toulalan was dismissed early in the second period and Arjen Robben struck, his powerful shot taking a touch off Thomas Muller to deceive Hugo Lloris for a 1-0 win.

Any hopes of a Lyon turnaround were significantly dented before half-time in the return leg as Ivica Olic's right-footed goal from a Muller pass left Les Gones needed to score three.
