Less than four miles from the backdrop of the Eiffel Tower, one team will seal a ticket to the 2025 Champions League final on May 31 in Munich on Wednesday, while the other will continue to suffer as the wait to win a first title goes on.
PSG head into the second leg of the second semifinal leading 1-0 as they prepare to face Arsenal at the Parc des Princes, but anything can happen in the French capital.
For the Parisians, it's time to take a leap forward. The undisputed kings of Ligue 1, they have the chance to finally conquer Europe and overcome the memory of the 2020 final when they lost to Bayern Munich, and with Luis Enrique in charge, their hopes are intact.
Although they have gone three games without a win in domestic French football, they were still crowned champions with six matches to spare, and they are in good shape in this tie after striking the opening blow at the Emirates Stadium with a narrow victory.
Added to that is the fact that they will face an opponent in Arsenal who they remain unbeaten against in their history.

Although they failed in their bid to be crowned Premier League champions, Arsenal's expectations are identical to PSG's. Not having to fight Liverpool anymore in the title race has allowed Mikel Arteta's team to focus solely on the Champions League.
A home defeat in the first leg will force them to win in Paris, but having already eliminated the Champions League's most successful-ever team and reigning champions Real Madrid over two legs in the quarterfinals, they will believe they can still get the job done at the Parc des Princes.
For this semifinal second leg, betway has home advantage playing a big factor with PSG favoured at 11/10 to win, while an Arsenal victory in Paris is priced at 23/10. Given how tight the first leg was, the draw in 90 minutes is a very attractive 53/20 with 10bet.
10bet also offer 100% up to £50 welcome bonus for new customers, which makes the above even more tempting.

PSG vs. Arsenal prediction, best betting odds
PSG 5+ shots on target (6/11, Spreadex)
Forced to settle the series at home with only a narrow first-leg advantage, PSG will have to show off their offensive prowess to book their place in the final.
The Parisian side has the second-highest number of goals in the 2025 Champions League (31), and has generated the most attacks (933), as well as the most attempts on goal (289), with 105 shots on target (only surpassed by Bayern Munich's 107), which averages seven per game. Those stats alone make this pick extremely interesting.
Arsenal to score the first goal (5/4, betway)
The Gunners must fire on all cylinders to try to level the tie as quickly as possible, and in three of their last four consecutive away wins in the Champions League, they've lived up to this prediction — The Gunners scored the first goal against Sporting Lisbon, PSV and Real Madrid in this competition.
Meanwhile, PSG tend to struggle at the Parc des Princes and have fallen behind at home against all of PSV, Manchester City, Liverpool and Aston Villa in the competition so far. With this combination, Arteta's team has a good chance of striking first.
