Madrid (12) have managed more.

• Jupp Heynckes has a 100% record of reaching UEFA Champions League finals. In his three previous campaigns he triumphed with Real
Madrid (1997/98) and Bayern (2012/13), also finishing runner-up with the Bavarians in 2011/12.

• Roma aim to become the 23rd team to lift the European Cup, and the fourth from Italy.
