The Champions League final is just around the corner. Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain will meet at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest in the biggest match of the European club season.
For Arsenal, this is a chance to win the Champions League for the first time in the club’s history. Mikel Arteta’s side has produced an impressive European campaign and now stands one step away from a historic trophy.
PSG, meanwhile, enter the final as the reigning champions. Luis Enrique’s team will try to defend the title and become the first French club to win the Champions League in back-to-back seasons.
One of the main talking points in Arsenal’s starting lineup is the inclusion of Kai Havertz from the first minute, while Viktor Gyökeres starts on the bench. Christian Mosquera and Myles Lewis-Skelly are also named in the starting eleven.
PSG also field a very strong lineup. Matvey Safonov starts in goal, while Désiré Doué, Ousmane Dembélé and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia form the attacking trio.
