Arsenal vs PSG head-to-head history.

If we examine past meetings, the final promises to be highly competitive. In seven prior clashes, each side has claimed two victories, and three matches ended in draws.

Their first encounter came in the semi-finals of the 1993/94 European Cup Winners' Cup. After a 1-1 draw in the first leg away, Arsenal secured a 1-0 home win via Kevin Campbell's strike, progressing 2-1 on aggregate. Subsequently, Arsenal beat Parma in the final to claim their sole European title.

The two sides did not clash again until the 2016/17 season when they were placed in the same Champions League group. A 1-1 draw in Paris was followed by a thrilling 2-2 draw at the Emirates.

During the 2024/25 campaign, Arsenal beat PSG 2-0 in the group stage thanks to strikes from Havertz and Saka. But in the previous season's Champions League semi-finals, PSG came out on top, winning 3-1 on aggregate.

Dembele netted the solitary goal in a 1-0 victory in the away first leg in London, and then Fabian Ruiz and Achraf Hakimi found the net in the home second leg in Paris. Arsenal managed just a consolation goal from Saka.

Subsequently, PSG advanced to the final and demolished Inter Milan 5-0 to claim their maiden Champions League title. The goals came from Hakimi, a double from Desire Doue, Kvaratskhelia, and Mayulu.
