STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Sat: PSG v Arsenal (UCL Final)
It all comes down to this for Arsenal, bidding to complete one of the great English football double acts – Premier League champions and Champions League winners in the same season, writes JOE CITRONE.
The Gunners went unbeaten through the entire league phase, lifted their first top-flight title in 22 years last Sunday, and now they head to Budapest with a point to prove. PSG dumped them out at the semi-final stage last year. This is Arsenal’s chance to settle the score.
Standing in their way are the holders, Paris Saint-Germain – a ruthless side determined to become the first club to retain the Champions League since Real Madrid in 2018.

Arsenal rested a raft of first-teamers for the final-day win over Palace – Saka, Gyokeres, Odegaard and Rice all came off the bench, with Mikel Arteta clearly having one eye on Budapest.
PSG’s firepower is frightening. Forty-four Champions League goals this campaign, and Luis Enrique’s side know exactly how to win this competition – they proved that in Rome last May.
Arsenal will be looking to complete the fairytale here, but a very strong side stands in their way – and I see them getting the job done here. At 7/5 with starsports.bet, I am backing PSG to win in 90 minutes.
