Dembele - Saliba

The reigning 2025 Ballon d'Or winner, Ousmane Dembele, is the biggest threat to Arsenal's defense. His unpredictability with both feet, blistering speed, and skillful dribbling will be challenged by his compatriot William Saliba – Arsenal's most reliable defensive anchor this season. Saliba possesses excellent judgment and a long stride to neutralize speed-oriented players. The winner of this duel will largely determine the outcome of the match.

Declan Rice - Vitinha

The midfield will be the hottest area of ​​the final. The responsibility of stifling the opponent's attacks falls to Declan Rice (Arsenal). The English midfielder is renowned for his world-class ball-winning and one-on-one tackling abilities. His direct rival is Vitinha – the creative mind of PSG and the third-place contender for the 2025 Ballon d'Or. Vitinha's ability to control the game, escape pressing, and deliver decisive passes will be tested by Declan Rice.

Bukayo Saka - Nuno Mendes

Bukayo Saka is the biggest source of inspiration in Arsenal's attacking moves. Saka's tricky play and his runs into the center to shoot or create chances will put Nuno Mendes on high alert. Therefore, Mendes must maintain maximum concentration to limit Saka.

Kvaratskhelia - Gabriel Magalhaes

With 10 goals and 6 assists in this season's Champions League, Kvaratskhelia – the Georgian star – is PSG's most dangerous attacking threat. His dazzling dribbles from the left wing straight into the center will directly challenge Arsenal's center-back Gabriel Magalhaes. The Brazilian defender's aggressive, physical, and powerful style of play will be a "serious test" of Kvaratskhelia's agility.
