Luis Enrique’s PSG will be looking to become the second team in the modern era to win the Champions League in successive seasons. The Parisians won the 2025 UCL final in impressive style, while they were beaten in 2020 final by Bayern Munich. PSG have only got stronger as the tournament has progressed, beating Bayern Munich 6-5 on aggregate in a stunning semi-final.
It is also worth noting that the Parisians have already beaten three English teams in the competition this term, overcoming Chelsea in the round of 16 and Liverpool in the quarterfinals. Ousmane Dembele will be fit enough to start after scoring seven in 12 Champions League appearances.

After a 20-year wait, Arsenal finally got their hands on the Premier League title on Sunday. However, this weekend, they will have their sights set on more history, as the Gunners bid to win the Champions League for the first time. Arsenal’s main strength has been their defensive quality, keeping clean sheets in four of their six knockout stage matches.
Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi will play ahead of the back four, with the Gunners likely to rely on their prowess from set pieces to break down the Parisians. Gabriel Martinelli has been a standout scorer in the UCL, netting six in the competition.
| TOTAL | PSG | Arsenal | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Games | 7 | 2 | 3 | 2 |
| Goals | 21 | 8 | 13 |
PSG delivered one of the all-time great Champions League final displays last season, and their free-flowing style of play will likely test Arsenal’s excellent defensive record. An early goal for the Parisians could open the scoring, and we could foresee them comfortably landing a second straight European honor.
