What’s at stake for both teams
The stakes could not be higher. Paris Saint-Germain, the reigning champions, are aiming to become the first team since Real Madrid in 2016 to secure back-to-back Champions League titles. After a shaky start to their European campaign, Les Parisiens have roared back to life with standout performances, including a commanding 5-2 victory over Chelsea and hard-fought wins against Liverpool and Bayern Munich.
On the other side of the pitch, Arsenal are riding a wave of momentum after clinching the Premier League title—their first in 22 years. This historic achievement has set the Gunners on a collision course with destiny. For Mikel Arteta’s side, lifting the Champions League trophy would cement their place among England’s elite clubs, joining the ranks of Manchester United, Manchester City, and Liverpool as double winners.
