Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain face off again at the Allianz Arena in the second leg of their already epic Champions League semi-final, with Arsenal watching on to see who they will face in the final.
The Gunners secured their place in the showpiece for the second time in their history on Tuesday, Bukayo Saka scoring the only goal of their second leg with Atlético Madrid to secure a 2-1 aggregate win.
The low-scoring nature of that tie was in stark contrast to what Bayern and PSG produced last week at the Parc des Princes, where Luis Enrique’s holders edged a remarkable game with the Bundesliga champions, prevailing 5-4.
As such, Bayern have work to do to take another step towards the treble, and Vincent Kompany will likely be preaching defensive solidity as much as he will be imploring his team to attack as they aim to overturn a narrow deficit.
PSG, meanwhile, are looking to become the first team to retain the trophy since Real Madrid in 2018.
The winner of this tie will be the favourite to lift the trophy, and 101GreatGoals has the full team news from Bavaria.
