Clash of titans : Champions league final 2020

Newbies vs The Old Guard : Battle for Europe' supremacy !

It took us a lot longer than initially planned but -- Season finale is finally here, 2019/20 is set to be concluded with a heavyweight clash between Bayern Munich and PSG. Matches don't come more enticing than this. Final between two teams that love to attack and are littered with match-winners-- it is a showdown that guarantees goals. PSG earned their spot after beating Borussia Dortmund, Atalanta, and RB Leipzig. They have gradually looked more dangerous and free-flowing over the past weeks of knock-out football. Bayern Munich has been a machine, they rolled past Chelsea with ease, obliterated Barcelona in quarters and easing past Lyon in the semi-finals. It's a clash between the dominant side from their respective leagues ( France and Germany). PSG became the 41st side to reach Champions League final and, will be hoping to lift the trophy for the first time in their history. Meanwhile, Bayern reached their 11th Champions League final and is seeking to win it for the sixth time in their history.

BAYERN MUNICH

Bayern is the favorites to win this tie. They have won ten in a row scoring 42 goals. This team looks to be in a mission to win, they have been dominant no matter the opposition. Lewandowski is in the form of his career, banging in goals for fun. Bayern Munich is pretty good and is the complete team. Attack supplemented by Gnabry and Müller alongside the best player currently, that's a frightening sight. Müller himself described himself as "Raumdeuter"(it means something like an interpreter of space). He is instrumental to the way Flick sets his team up. In his idiosyncratic way, he is central to the Flick style. From midfield to defense Bayern is stacked up with world-class players. They can easily up the tempo in this game which, PSG midfield should match the tempo --if they want to be crowned champions.

PSG

PSG have Neymar, Mbappe, Icardi, and Di Maria, Yet they are the underdogs in this final. They are coming against a Bayern side that functions very well from defensive end to attacking end. They must be at their best if they want to beat Bayern Munich. Bayern plays a high line that will suit the PSG attackers. Bayern's full-back love to bomb forward and their midfielders aren't used to a player running off them. Leon Goretzka will be important but it will come down to pace. Alaba is quick, he isn't quick enough for PSG's attackers. Expect some scintillating counter-attack from PSG.

PREDICTION :  PSG 3 - 2 BAYERN MUNICH

Bayern are favorite to win the tie, but PSG have enough fire power to hurt the German champions. It has to be the defence for Bayern which will be their undoing. Messi should have scored against them and was furious at himself, which then changes the format of the game. Bayern killed them in the end, but they do give away chances. Serge Gnabry looks unreal and Bayern look strong. It has been a massive effort from both of these sides and it is a treat to have them in the final. Kylian Mbappe is also on the edge of being the next superstar for a while. Winning Champions will no doubt proper him in that category.  Along with brilliance of Neymar, it might be too much for Bayern to handle.
