The 2025 UEFA Champions League final will pit Inter Milan against Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday, May 31, 2025. Both of these teams have run through absolute gauntlets to reach this prestigious final and the winner of the competition will be truly deserving of the greatest trophy in club football. Here, we break down Inter Milan vs PSG and make our prediction for what should be a fascinating final between Italian and French giants.
Inter Milan Looks For First UCL Title Since 2010
Inter Milan advanced to the Champions League final by beating a host of impressive European opponents. After dispatching Feyenoord in the round of 16, they took down Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals and Barcelona in the semifinals to stamp their ticket to Munich. Their 7-6 aggregate triumph over Barca was one of the legendary two-legged ties in the history of this great competition and Inter will hope that triumph helps them earn this trophy for the first time in 15 years.
For Inter, the question going into this match will be whether their defense can stand up to the attacking pressure of PSG. Inter showed against Barcelona that scoring goals is no problem for them, but the Milanese side has given up nine goals over their last four Champions League matches. A similarly leaky defensive performance in this final could cost them the biggest prize available to them, even if Inter keep the goals flowing.
PSG Seeks First Champions League Triumph
For PSG, the path to the Champions League final went through England. After crushing fellow French side Brest 10-0 on aggregate in the round of 32, the Parisians knocked out Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal in succession to set up this affair with Inter. PSG’s performance in the knockout rounds of this tournament has looked nothing like their previous runs deep into the Champions League, as they have held their nerve very nicely, including in a penalty shootout against Liverpool and while facing an early onslaught in their second leg against Arsenal.
This is the second time that PSG has made it to the Champions League final. They were defeated in the 2020 final by Bayern Munich, with PSG academy alum Kingsley Coman scoring the lone goal for Bayern. Here, PSG will needs its defense to be just as good as they were in that match, if not better, to shut down the potent attack of Inter.

- We expect there to be a slow feeling out process in the first half of this match before things open up.
- PSG’s defending should help this match stay under the total.
This match is going to be packed with quality on both sides and could come down to which side does the best job of holding its nerve. Both of these teams have suffered recent heartbreak in the final of this competition, with PSG losing the 2020 final to Bayern and Inter losing 1-0 to Manchester City in the 2023 final.
As far as our prediction for this match is concerned, we will go with the under at 2.5 goals. Some early nerves and the teams feeling each other out should mean a slow start, as this match should end 1-0 or 1-1 behind the strong defending of PSG.
