Juventus Women host Olympique Lyonnais in the Champions League for the third time in as many seasons in Group C Matchday 2.

Read on to discover more stats and curiosities ahead of today's 18:45 CEST kick-off.

GROUP THINK - This is the first group stage encounter between Juventus and Olympique Lyonnais after the Bianconere won the quarter-final first leg last season, while the previous season OL, the then-defending champions, won 3-2 in the Round of 32.

HISTORY REPEATING - After defeating FC Zurich last week, for the second season in succession Juventus face a Champions League finalist after winning the opening group stage fixture in Switzerland. Last season the Bianconere beat Servette before facing Chelsea.

FORCE FIVE - Lyon's Matchday 1 defeat by Arsenal was the first time defending UWCL champions have conceded five goals in a single game and the first time OL have conceded as many since losing by the same 5-1 result at CNFE Clairfontaine in May 2005.

GOAL DIFFERENCE - Juve were one of six teams to keep a clean sheet in the opening group stage fixtures. On the other hand, only Benfica were more on the receiving end than Lyon, nine goals conceded for the Portuguese to the French outfit's five.

SCORING QUEST - The Bianconere have found the net in all but one of their last 11 Champions League matches at home, including qualifying rounds, while Lyon have failed to score in just one of their last 37 games in the competition proper.
