**Munich, Germany** – Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Inter Milan are set to clash in the UEFA Champions League final on Saturday, May 31st, at 9 PM (19:00 GMT) at the Allianz Arena in Munich. This marks the first-ever competitive meeting between the two European giants.

PSG, backed by Qatar Sports Investments, is making its second appearance in the Champions League final, seeking to improve on their 2020 defeat against Bayern Munich. The French champions cruised to the Ligue 1 title by a staggering 19 points. PSG booked their place after defeating Arsenal 2-1 at the Parc des Princes, winning their semifinal tie with a 3-1 aggregate scoreline. All eyes will be on in-form French forward Ousmane Dembele, who has enjoyed a stellar season with 32 goals in 50 appearances.

Inter Milan, a three-time Champions League winner, arrives in Munich after a hard-fought campaign, finishing second in Serie A after a dramatic final day. Inter beat Barcelona 7-6 on aggregate in the Semi-Finals. French International Marcus Thuram will be a key man for Inter, having scored 18 goals in 52 appearances this season, partnering well with the side’s top scorer, Lautaro Martinez.

This final marks the first time a German venue has hosted the Champions League final since 2012. The 75,000-seat Allianz Arena, home to Bayern Munich, will be the stage for what promises to be an enthralling encounter.

PSG manager Luis Enrique has a fully fit squad and the benefit of managing workloads towards the end of their domestic season. Inter Milan, after a challenging Serie A campaign, is hopeful of having key players like Benjamin Pavard and Lautaro Martinez available.

“[Inter Milan] are ready. They’ve not made too many changes to their side,” said Enrique. “It’s up to us to go into the final in the right frame of mind.”

Inter boss Simone Inzaghi added, “We’re going to approach the final in the best possible way.”
