* Manchester City have not lost a single home game in the Europa League this season.
* Emmanuel Adebayor scored four goals in the European competition before his move to Real Madrid. Mario Balotelli follows closely with three to his name.
* Roberto Mancini’s men have scored 17 goals in the tournament, including the qualifiers against Timisoara.
* But the Eastlands outfit have also conceded eight goals in the process.
* City lost the first leg by two goals, and have it all to do in the reverse fixture. If their opponents score once, then the home side will have to hit the back of the net four times to book a place in the next stage of the competition.
* Dynamo Kiev were founded in 1927.
* The Ukrainian capital club have spent their entire history playing top-flight football, in the Soviet and Ukrainian league.
* Yuri Syomin’s charges have lost only once through the course of their Europa League campaign. This was a shock defeat to Moldovan club Sheriff Tiraspol in the group stage.
* The Ukrainian outfit are currently on an undefeated streak of 11 games in all competitions.
* They are also in second place in their domestic league, and have scored 39 goals from 21 games with a goal difference of +22. Only Metalist (40) have scored more goals, while Shakhtar Donetsk (+31) remain the only club with a better goal difference.
