Paris Saint-Germain, often considered a dominant force in European football, has a historic opportunity in the 2025 UEFA Champions League final against Inter Milan. Despite their domestic success, PSG has never claimed the ultimate European prize in either the Champions League or the older European Cup format. In contrast, Inter Milan boasts a richer European pedigree, having been crowned continental champions three times, most recently in 2010.
Domestically, PSG secured their 13th Ligue 1 title this past season. Inter Milan finished just one point behind Napoli in Serie A. The upcoming final marks the sixth encounter between these two major clubs. In their previous five meetings, PSG holds the advantage with three wins and one draw.
Why Back PSG
PSG enters this final with a strong motivation to finally conquer Europe, a feat that has eluded them after reaching the final in 2020 and exiting at the quarterfinals or later on seven other occasions. Their path to the final this year included overcoming tough opponents from the Premier League in the knockout stages, following a commanding 10-0 aggregate victory in a playoff round. Key to their success has been Ousmane Dembele, who was prolific in the league and contributed significantly with goals and assists in the Champions League.
Following the departure of their star player, the club successfully rebuilt and exceeded expectations. They dominated Ligue 1, clinching the title well before the season concluded. Several players stepped up consistently, proving decisive against opponents throughout their campaign.
Why Back Inter Milan
Inter Milan`s journey to the final demonstrated resilience against formidable teams. This side showcased remarkable defensive strength in the group stage, conceding minimal goals. While maintaining a solid defensive foundation, they also demonstrated an evolving attacking approach in the knockout rounds. Key players like Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram, supported by others such as Denzel Dumfries and Hakan Calhanoglu, are crucial for matching PSG`s offensive power.
Inter were recent runners-up in this competition in 2023 and have enjoyed significant domestic success in Italy, securing multiple league or cup titles in recent seasons.
The 2025 UEFA Champions League Final promises to be a compelling contest between two European heavyweights with differing histories in the competition.
