PSG v Bayern Munich – many German fans expected at Parc des Princes

This Tuesday at 9 p.m. (broadcast on Canal+), Paris Saint-Germain will face Bayern Munich at the Parc des Princes in the first leg of the 2025-2026 Champions League semi-final (return leg on May 6). According to Ici Paris, PSG will see just over 2,000 visiting supporters take their seats in the stands.

To oversee the event — and welcome more than 2,000 supporters of the Bavarian club — the prefecture has planned a substantial security operation, with seven law enforcement units deployed, or between 560 and 700 officers from the CRS and mobile gendarmerie. From both a sporting and fan perspective, there is no particular antagonism between the supporters of the two clubs, which greatly limits concerns. Nevertheless, the recent incidents involving Paris ultras, notably the brawl on the sidelines of the match against Angers (3-0) this weekend, are prompting the authorities to remain vigilant.

It makes sense: Munich supporters are traveling in large numbers, while respecting the quota imposed by UEFA, for this hugely exciting clash. In any case, there is a large group of loyal fans behind a club with immense history. On top of that, the team is going through a very strong period, with attractive football and victories. It is also a chance to face another European giant for a place in the Champions League final, in a match that promises to be spectacular.

So should the atmosphere be, for that matter. Roll on this evening, which we hope will pass without incident off the pitch. And, ideally, with a fine Parisian victory on the field to take an advantage into the return leg.
