Check out some European Challenge Cup facts and figures ahead of this year's season finale with Worcester Warriors and Bath set to go head to head at Kingsholm on May 25.

* This is the third all-English final, following London Wasps v Bath Rugby in 2003 and Gloucester Rugby v London Irish in 2006.
* The 2008 final will be the 905th tournament match.
* Bath Rugby will equal ASM Clermont Auvergne's record with their third European Challenge Cup final appearance. But while the French club (formerly Montferrand) have won the title twice, in 1999 and last season, Bath Rugby are hoping to make it third time lucky.
* Worcester Warriors are appearing in their first European final in only their fourth season competing against European opposition.
* ASM Clermont Auvergne became the third club to have won the trophy twice, joining Harlequins in 2001 and 2004 and Sale Sharks in 2002 and 2005. Their win last year ended a run of six straight English final triumphs.
* The first four tournaments were strictly French affairs won by Bourgoin, Colomiers, Montferrand and Pau.

* The most points (78) and tries (nine) scored in a tournament final came in 2003 when London Wasps beat Bath Rugby 48-30 at the Madejski Stadium in reading.
* The biggest win in a final was when Colomiers beat Agen by 38 points in 1998. They also scored a tournament equalling record seven tries in their 43-5 romp.
