Paris Saint-Germain return to the Parc des Princes tonight carrying a 1-0 advantage over Arsenal, thanks to Ousmane Dembélé’s brilliant goal in the first leg at the Emirates. Now, in front of their home fans, PSG are aiming to secure their spot in the Champions League final.
Luis Enrique squad has shown a more balanced and cohesive style this season, with Dembélé providing the spark in attack and the midfield trio of Neves, Vitinha, Fabian controlling tempo. Defensively, PSG remain solid, with Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, and Mendes forming a reliable backline.
Arsenal, led by Mikel Arteta, must respond after a frustrating first leg. While they dominated possession at home, their attack failed to find a breakthrough. To stay alive, they’ll need standout performances from Raya; Timber, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly; Partey, Rice, Odegaard; Saka, Merino, Martinelli.
PSG with full confidence will be used as motivation to continue to win in the second leg of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League semi-finals.
Prediction: PSG 2 –0 Arsenal (agg. 3–0)
Paris look strong, unified, and ready to return to the biggest stage in European football.
