  • The Champions League is back and Real Madrid kick off the 2020/21 group stages with a home clash against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday.
  • This will be Karim Benzema's 17th consecutive campaign in the elite European competition - only Iker Casillas (20) and Lionel Messi (17) have more.
  • The Frenchman played his first Champions League game for his former side Olympique Lyonnais in 2004/05 in the last-16 clash against Bundesliga outfit Werder Bremen.
  • Benzema went on the feature in 120 Champions League games, scoring 65 goals and winning the competition more times than any other French player (4, tied with Madrid's Raphael Varane).
