The two teams have contested several Coupe de France finals, but in recent years they have met almost as much in UEFA competition as in domestic competition. In fact, this is the sixth time in eight seasons that they have faced each other. The second leg will be the tenth UEFA Women’s Champions League singles match between the two.
PSG are the only team to have eliminated Lyon in the last eight seasons: first in the 2014/15 round of 16 and then in the 2020/21 quarter-finals.

It was also the team that reached the semifinals the most times, on 9 occasions. He arrives at this meeting, with the weight and experience of history. His rival, PSG, was runner-up twice (2014/2015 and 2016/2017) and dreams of lifting his first cup this year.
