* Arsenal have never beaten a fellow-English club in Europe.

3-2 to Chelsea at the same stage four years earlier, both after
a 1-1 draw in the first leg.

* Arsenal, who have progressed to the final from all six
previous European semi-finals, have not conceded a single goal
in their last six CL home games and have let in just two in the
last 12.

* Arsenal's Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor has scored
eight goals in his last nine CL matches.

* Manchester United are aiming to extend their European
record of 24 unbeaten matches as well as their other records of
151 CL games played and 79 victories.

* United have conceded just one goal in their last seven CL
away games. They have not failed to score in a European game
against a fellow-English clubs for more than 45 years - since
losing 2-0 in London to Tottenham Hotspur in the 1963-64 Cup
Winners Cup.

* United striker Carlos Tevez has never finished on the
losing team in 20 CL matches.
