PSG and Flensburg share rich history

The two teams have a rich joined history in the competition, as they have been playing each other in every EHF Champions League group phase since the 2015/16 season.

PSG lead the head-to-head stats with nine wins compared to the German side's three, and the French champions also won both confrontations last season, although very narrowly - 30:29 in Flensburg and 32:30 om home court.
