Chelsea

Appearances: 10Goals: 3It took the Argentina star until his ninth meeting with the Blues before he got his name on the scoresheet as the two teams shared some momentous Champions League battles.7

Messi broke his duck against Chelsea in 2018

He was shut out in the last 16 in 2005-06 – playing just 24 minutes in the second leg – the following season’s two group games and the semi-finals in 2009 and 2012.He finally broke his duck last season after Andreas Christensen’s error in a 1-1 draw in the last 16 before scoring twice in a 3-0 win in the return leg.

Arsenal

Appearances: 6Goals: 9Messi’s greatest individual night against English opposition came in April 2010 when he staved off a quarter-final upset with a stunning four-goal burst against Arsene Wenger’s Gunners.7

Messi has scored nine goals against Arsenal

His second-leg brace in the following season’s last-16 clash had a similar effect as Barca won 4-3 on aggregate, while he scored three of their goals in a 5-1 aggregate success at the same stage in 2016.

Manchester City

Appearances: 6Goals: 6A hat-trick in October 2016’s 4-0 win in Group C, on Pep Guardiola’s return to the Nou Camp, boosted Messi’s record against City.7

Messi has a brilliant record against Man City

He also scored in the return fixture the following month, having previously found the net in both legs of Barca’s 4-1 aggregate win in the last 16 in the 2013-14 competition.

Manchester United

Appearances: 6Goals: 4Prior to his two goals in this month’s quarter-final second leg, Messi had scored only twice in five appearances against the Red Devils.7

Messi dismantled Man United earlier this month

Those goals, however, both came in finals – a header in 2009 and a superb 20-yard effort in 2011 – as he saved his best for the big occasion. The latter was his first goal on English soil.

Tottenham

Appearances: 2Goals: 2This season’s competition was the first time Messi had come up against Spurs, who were drawn in Group B alongside Barca.7

Messi has two in two against Spurs

He marked the occasion with a brace in his side’s 4-2 win at Wembley, before playing just 28 minutes of the home fixture.

Liverpool

Appearances: 3Goals: 2A 19-year-old Messi faced Liverpool twice in the 2006/07 Champions League campaign and failed to find the net in either game.7

Messi hasn’t scored against Liverpool

He played the full duration of both games but was kept at bay as Liverpool won 2-1 at the Nou Camp and progressed on away goals after a 1-0 loss at home.The Argentine had to wait 12 years for his chance to score against the Reds, and boy did he take it.
