PSG vs Arsenal: Prediction, head-to-head, team news, possible lineups, and betting tips

PSG had Arsenal on the strings in the opening exchanges at the Emirates and were eventually rewarded with an early goal from Ousmane Dembélé that eventually settled the clash.

David Raya and Gianluigi Donnarumma pulled off fantastic saves to keep the scoreline at that, leaving both teams with all to play for in the second leg.

PSG have no league distractions anymore, having secured the Ligue 1 title, and this afforded them the opportunity to rest players in the 2-1 loss to Strasbourg.

However, Mikel Arteta fielded a strong team as the Gunners lost 2-1 at home to Bournemouth, with their second spot in the Premier League now shaky.

Both of PSG’s home games against Arsenal in the past have finished with a 1-1 scoreline. The French side have won three of their last four UCL home games, though they have lost twice on their ground this season, to Liverpool and Atletico Madrid.

Both Arsenal and PSG are looking to secure just their second appearance in a Champions League final.

Arsenal will welcome back Thomas Partey, who missed the first leg through suspension, but Jorginho remains sidelined.

Riccardo Calafiori is also back in contention after recovering from injury, while Gabriel Magalhães and Kai Havertz (both hamstring), Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee), and Gabriel Jesus (ACL) all remain out.

Dembélé was the only scare for PSG after he exited the first leg due to a hamstring problem, but he is now likely to feature, having trained in the last two days. 

PSG Predicted lineup (4-3-3)

Donnarumma (GK); Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves; Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia

Arsenal Predicted lineup (4-3-3)

Raya (GK); Timber, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly; Rice, Partey, Odegaard; Saka, Merino, Martinelli

We expect this to be another low-scoring affair, with both teams quite cautious about not giving the other space in behind.
