PSG vs. Arsenal Predictions

• Where: Puskas Arena, Budapest, Hungary
• When: Saturday, May 30, 6 pm CET

It all comes down to this game. The defending UCL champions, PSG, face Arsenal in the game that decides the European champion. Looking at the odds, the Saints have a slight edge, but not much. Arsenal has huge momentum, having won the Premier League last weekend after more than 20 years. PSG is in excellent form and at the peak of its powers, so this should be an enjoyable event to watch.

PSG vs. Arsenal Preview

PSG

The Saints lost their last game of the French championship to local rivals Paris FC, 2-1. Though nobody in PSG was interested in this one, because the main prize was the UCL.

Luis Enrique’s unit already secured the domestic title and is now after their second straight European crown. Previously, we saw them beat Brest at home, 1-0, and Lens 0-2 on the road, where they showed dominance over other French teams.

We have to say that PSG has a rocky road to the finals, eliminating Chelsea, Liverpool and Bayern Munich. In each of these events, the Saints were pretty dominant.

Arsenal

The Gunners’ form is fantastic, with them securing the title in a very tight and difficult race with City. Arteta’s crew reached its best form at the right time, posting 5 wins in a row when needed most.

Arsenal had a tough time back in early April, but it pulled itself together, getting back on the winning path and posting a 7-game defeatless streak.

The defense is the top weapon for this crew, with the Gunners posting a clean sheet in 5 of the last 7 games and allowing just 2 goals. One of them was last weekend against Crystal Palace in the match that didn’t mean anything to either side.

PSG vs Arsenal Head to Head

The Saints beat Arsenal in the UCL semis twice last year. The game in London saw the French side triumph 0-1, and the second leg finished 2-1 for the hosts in Paris. Previously, Arsenal was better in the league stage, 2-0 at home.

PSG vs. Arsenal Predictions

This will be a tactical matchup with both sides applying conservative tactics and game plans. Arteta will focus on defense, with Declan Rice deep behind the midfield, using him as a safety, meaning Arsenal won’t be that creative upfront or open to press and attack. Enrique’s unit will also focus on transition and trying to find rivals’ mistakes, but overall, our opinion is that PSG will control the ball more. Nevertheless, there won’t be too many goals in Budapest and our pick is under 2.5 hits.

Our verdict: Under 2.5 goals
