PSG's Quality and Experience Make Them Favorites
Steven Gerrard believes Arsenal will head into the Champions League final as underdogs against Paris Saint-Germain. The former Liverpool captain praised PSG's quality and warned that Mikel Arteta's side will need a near-perfect performance to win the European crown.
PSG's Road to the Final
PSG booked their place in the Champions League final after edging past Bayern Munich 6-5 on aggregate. Their latest European display further strengthened their status as favourites to retain the trophy later this month.
