PSG come into this final after eliminating Arsenal in last season’s Champions League semi-final, winning 3-1 on aggregate across the two legs. Their ability to handle high-pressure knockout matches has been a major strength, and they once again look well equipped for the biggest stage in European football.
Arsenal have developed into one of the strongest defensive teams in Europe under Mikel Arteta and will be confident they can frustrate PSG for long periods. Set pieces, organisation and discipline have been key factors behind their run to the final, and they possess enough attacking talent to punish mistakes.
However, finals are often decided by moments of individual brilliance, and PSG arguably have more players capable of producing those decisive moments. With attacking threats across the front line and experience from recent deep European runs, the French champions hold a slight edge.
A very tight contest is expected and extra time would not be a surprise, but PSG look the more likely side to eventually get the job done and lift the trophy
