PSG did not qualify for the Round of 16. Instead, with a 4-1-3 record, the team had to begin their journey in the knockout round, where they handled Brest 3-0 and 7-0 to move on to face Liverpool in the Round of 16. That two-game series went to a penalty shoot-out with PSG winning 4-1. In the quarter-final, PSG bested Aston Villa by an aggregate score of 5-4 before topping Arsenal in the semi-final.
Luis Enrique, who is in his second year with the club, has PSG playing as a cohesive unit in all aspects of the game. PSG has a strong attacking offense behind Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué, but the team can fall back and play well on defense as well when they need to do so.
PSG have spent the past few weeks preparing specifically for this game, which could be good or bad. If they play too tightly and in fear of making a mistake, that could provide Inter with the opening they need to put points on the board.
Inter had a tough go of things in their second game against Barcelona. The team led at the half, but gave up two quick goals to tie the game. Barcelona then pulled ahead in the 87th minute and held that lead until a Francesco Acerbi goal in stoppage time forced an extra 30 minutes where Davide Frattesi scored less than 10 minutes into extra time. The team showed resiliency in that outing, but allowing Barcelona back into the game was something that should not have happened, and that could make fans and bettors nervous heading into the final.
PSG will enter the 2025 UEFA Champions League Final with great confidence and momentum. The team also has better attacking ability and the players to control midfield against Inter Milan. With that being said, expect a low-scoring game with defense at a premium.
The betting pick is for PSG to beat Inter Milan for the 2025 UEFA Champions League title.
