PSG head into this Champions League final with plenty on their plate. Their last five games show a side that has dropped points at the worst times, including that 1-2 loss to Paris FC just days ago. Arsenal arrive on a different run altogether, unbeaten in their last five and grinding out narrow wins like the 1-0 over Atlético Madrid in the semis.
Both sides sit top of their domestic leagues, Arsenal with 85 points from 38 games and PSG on 76 from 34. That tells part of the story, but the real test comes at Puskás Aréna on 30 May 2026. PSG chase back-to-back titles while Arsenal reach their first final in two decades.
Injuries could shape the outcome more than most expect. Hakimi looks unlikely to start for PSG with his thigh issue, and Dembele races to regain fitness after a calf problem. Pacho and Mendes are still working back from thigh knocks. Arsenal miss Timber with an ankle and groin complaint, plus White who is ruled out for the season with his knee.
Kvaratskhelia has been the standout for PSG lately and will carry much of their threat. Arsenal lean on Saka for goals and assists, while Gyökeres has already hit 21 across all competitions. Their five straight victories underline a team that knows how to close games out.
Expect Arsenal to press early and look for control, but PSG's experience in these big nights can't be ignored. The French side should still find ways to create chances through their key attackers, even if the squad feels stretched.
