Background
• Lyon are unbeaten at home in the competition this season and defeated Real Madrid CF in the last round, while Bordeaux are the UEFA Champions League's form team with seven successive victories.
• These teams have played over two legs once before in the 1972/73 French Cup last 16, Lyon winning 3-0 at home and losing 3-1 in Bordeaux to go through.
• Lyon are seeking their first appearance in the last four of the UEFA Champions League having fallen at this hurdle three times previously – in 2003/04, 2004/05 and 2005/06.
• Bordeaux last got this far in Europe's premier club competition in 1987/88 when they lost to PSV Eindhoven. Three years earlier they beat FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk on penalties to reach the semi-finals.
• The pair's overall head-to-head record in the French top flight could hardly be closer: Bordeaux have 32 wins and Lyon 31 with 26 draws. The record between them at the Stade de Gerland is 21 wins for Lyon, 12 for Bordeaux and 12 draws.
