The Gunners are aiming to clinch their first-ever UCL trophy!
Arsenal are getting ready to battle it out at the Puskas Arena against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). The Champions of England and the Champions of France are going to face one another in the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League final.
The Mikel Arteta-led side are on a top run of form at the moment. They have secured back-to-back wins in their last matches and will be looking to extend it. The Gunners came out on top to clinch the English Premier League title after more than two decades.
Arsenal are not going to have it easy in the UCL final. Paris Saint-Germain are going to appear in their second consecutive Champions League final and it is going to be a tough experience for the Gunners.
Mikel Arteta’s men are unbeaten in the elite European competition this season and can become another club to win the prestigious title without losing a game.
Viktor Gyokeres, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli are going to play an important role in the attacking front for the Premier League side. Controlling the midfield will be in the hands of Martin Zubimendi, Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard. Forming a strong defensive backline are Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba, Riccardo Calafiori and Jurrien Timber. Between the posts is standing a strong David Raya.
