The most awaited match of the season is here, the UEFA Champions League 2025 Final, where Paris Saint-Germain takes on Inter Milan. The date is 31st May and the live action begins at 9 PM (CET). The Munich Football Arena in Germany is the venue for the final. When we discuss the PSG vs Inter: UEFA Champions League 2025 Final Preview, it is the game every team dreams of playing by the end of the season.
It is going to be Inter Milan’s seventh UEFA Champions League final, and they are hunting their fourth title. On the other hand, the Paris Saint-Germain owner, Nasser Al-Khelaif, is desperate to win the club’s first-ever UCL title. One thing that favours PSG is that Munich has always provided a new champion, but football doesn’t work this way, surely, but you never know, this season is for the unexpected ones.
This game is surely going to be one of the iconic games that is full of tactics. It will be great to watch what the two great managers, Luis Enrique and Simone Inzaghi, will bring to the final.
PSG vs Inter: UEFA Champions League 2025 Final Preview
Inter at the start of the tournament were the underdogs, and now they will play in the final. Their journey in the tournament has been one to remember as they just conceded five goals in the tournament before reaching the semi-finals, but Barcelona scored six in both legs of the semi-finals. Eventually, Inter had the last laugh as Frattesi’s goal helped them reach the final.
When we look at the journey of Paris Saint-Germain, it surely has been a journey of ups and downs. At one moment, they were 25th on the league phase points table, but they have turned it around. They can probably go and win their first UEFA Champions League title, and it will be without Kylian Mbappe. The team is surely well balanced.

Betting Tips
- Tip 1 – Defender to score a goal
In the final, set pieces are very important, no matter how many impactful players play in the team. The defenders usually are because of their height in head-to-head situations to head the ball. We can see a defender score a goal in this game.
- Tip 2 – No more than two goals will be scored
When we look at the six previous finals, there are not more than two goals scored by any team. This is also going to be a low-scoring final. One more thing we should take note of is that the teams that have won have kept a clean sheet.
- Tip 3 – Paris Saint-Germain to win
With all due respect to Inter Milan, but PSG has a more balanced team than Inter. FC Barcelona has exposed some gaps in Inter’s game, and the PSG manager is very smart and will make a note of that. At the end, it will be a close game, and Paris will win it.
Players to Watch in both teams
Vitinha (Paris Saint-Germain)
All the eyes will be on Dembele; there is no doubt that Vitinha will be a very important player as Inter are a very compact team. The maturity and composure he has on the ball are just unmatched. One precise long pass to any of the forwards can catch Inter. The prime example is Pedri’s pass to Raphinha, which he then passed to Ferran. He can take long shots as well.
Lautaro Martinez (Inter)
Martinez is surely one of the most prolific strikers in world football. On the ball, he is very smart and creates chances for his other teammates. He won the penalty against Pau Cubasi with his intelligence. Lautaro knew he could be beaten, but he changed direction and won the penalty. This experience is much needed in the decisive games.
