He will face Arsenal in the Champions League final on May 30, having been a consistent and reliable presence throughout the knockout rounds.
One save in win

Analysis: Safonov played the full 90 minutes in Saturday's 3-0 win over Angers, facing very limited goalkeeping work throughout but making his one meaningful contribution count when he came to claim a powerful cross in the second half to deny the hosts any hope of a consolation. Safonov has now kept five consecutive clean sheets in away fixtures across all competitions and will look to carry that momentum into Tuesday's Champions League first leg against Bayern Munich.
Secures clean sheet

Analysis: Safonov made four saves to secure the clean sheet in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Nantes. The goalkeeper continues his strong run of form, recording 23 saves while conceding just three goals and keeping five clean sheets across his last seven appearances in all competitions. He will look to maintain that momentum against Angers on Saturday ahead of a Champions League clash with Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
Concedes twice in loss
Safonov made three saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to Lyon.
Analysis: Safonov made three saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Lyon, ending his run of consecutive clean sheets.
