PSG/Arsenal – Probable line-ups for the Champions League final | OneFootball

This Wednesday, in the 2025-2026 Champions League final, Paris Saint-Germain will face Arsenal at the Puskas Arena in Budapest (kick-off at 6 p.m., live on Canal+ and M6). Ahead of this clash, the press has tried to predict the lineups that will be selected by PSG coach Luis Enrique and Gunners manager Mikel Arteta.

PSG (4-3-3) –

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué

Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

Even though Luis Enrique is known for bold decisions and a few surprises, there is very little doubt about the team he will field for this final. And to clear up any remaining uncertainty, we will have to wait for the official announcement, since he is not in the habit of leaking information to the media. With the competition in midfield, player management, and the versatility within the PSG squad, it is fair to wonder whether Achraf Hakimi will start straight away on his return from injury.

He has had time to get ready, but he also has not played for about a month. Warren Zaïre-Emery could also take his place at kick-off. Unless he is used in midfield...or on the bench, because Fabian Ruiz is a genuine contender to reclaim his spot, just as he did in last season’s final.

Arsenal (4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3) –

Gyökeres

Trossard – Odegaard – Saka

Lewis-Skelly – Rice

Calafiori – Gabriel – Saliba – Timber

Raya

or

Trossard – Havertz – Saka

Odegaard – Lewis-Skelly – Rice

Calafiori – Gabriel – Saliba – Mosquera

Raya

There are several options on Arsenal’s side, with doubts surrounding players who have not been especially effective lately (such as Gyökeres or Odegaard), as well as Timber, who is returning from a long injury layoff. The setup could also change slightly. We will have to wait for the official lineup announcement, about an hour before the match, to know for sure.
