PSG emerged dominant 5-0 winners over Inter in last season's Champions League showpiece, but it's likely they will find things a lot tougher this time around. It's being billed as the classic unstoppable force vs immovable object and I'd tend to agree.

Luis Enrique's side have scored a whopping 44 goals in this season's Champions League, with only Barcelona in 1999-00 finding the back of the net more times in a CL season. Meanwhile, Arsenal's rock-solid defence laid the foundation for a breakthrough Premier League triumph, but they also became the first side in Champions League history to go 14 games unbeaten to reach the final, keeping a record nine clean sheets in the process.

So, what prevails - attack or defence? I won't lie, I could easily see an Arsenal 1-0 win coming in the 89th minute via a corner or penalty. It just fits the vibe of the entire season, but PSG's electrifying attack just can't be ignored. I think the French champions are operating at a different level and they can exploit Arsenal's suspect right side - back Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to continue his red-hot goalscoring form in this competition. Both teams are also tipped to score, with PSG vulnerable defensively.

PSG vs Arsenal Head To Head

PSG were winless in five meetings before conquering Arsenal in last season's semi-finals, which led to a maiden Champions League trophy.

PSG Form Analysis

It's been another successful season for PSG - it was tougher than other years, but they claimed their obligatory Ligue 1 title and are back in the Champions League final for the second season running following their inaugural triumph last term over Inter.

PSG scored 74 goals in 34 Ligue 1 games, with Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Desire Doue all in sizzling form.

It was a similar story in the latter stages of the Champions League, with the Parisians demolishing English opposition in Liverpool and Chelsea over two legs before edging out Bayern Munich in a pulsating tie.

Luis Enrique's side prevailed in a 5-4 classic in the first leg, with Dembele and Kvaratskhelia scoring doubles before holding on for a 1-1 draw in Munich.

Arsenal Form Analysis

It got a bit nervous towards the end there, but Arsenal held off Man City and broke through for their first Premier League title in two decades, catapulting Mikel Arteta to instant legend status in London.

Arsenal's last three wins in the EPL were by single-goal margins over West Ham, Burnley and Crystal Palace, with their defence - led by Gabriel, William Saliba and goalkeeper David Raya - holding firm and proving the catalyst for their season-long success.

The Gunners have gone 14 games unbeaten in the Champions League with a record nine clean sheets, but they weren't all that convincing in the latter stages, edging out Sporting and Atletico Madrid by 1-0 and 2-1 aggregate scores.

PSG vs Arsenal Team News

Ousmane Demeble is set to start for PSG, despite coming off in the final game of the Ligue 1 season with a calf problem. Achraf Hakimi remains sidelined with a hamstring injury sustained in the semi-final win over Bayern.

Jurrien Timber is unlikely to return for a first game in eight weeks at right back, meaning Cristhian Mosquera could start. Ben White is out with a knee injury.

Verdict

PSG v Arsenal

PSG are tipped to edge out Arsenal in a game that sees both teams find the back of the net. Kvaratskhelia can find the back of the net once again.
