We are delighted to present you with the PSG vs Arsenal preview for this midweek's Champions League semi-final tie. The preview will include information about team news, predicted lineups & how to watch on TV.

Luis Enrique's side are preparing for the biggest game on their season when they play Arsenal on Wednesday, May 7th, 2025, at the Parc Des Princes.

Despite leading the tie 0-1, the French champions must not think the job is done when the Gunners come to the French capital. They are not in the best of form heading into the game, having taken one point from a possible nine, but this is solely down to the fact that they have already won the league. This shows that they can go up a gear, which is both a blessing and a curse. If they play in second gear against Mikel Arteta's side, then they could easily let them back into the tie. The Aston Villa 2nd leg is a perfect example of this, as they gave Unai Emery's side a way back into the tie in the second half of the second leg. If PSG play to the best of their ability, they could progress to the final against Barcelona or Inter Milan. The game is scheduled to kick off at 20:00 GMT.

PSG team news:

Les Parisiens followed their Champions League heroics last midweek with a defeat at the hands of Strasbourg. The result is not much of a surprise as Luis Enrique opted for a second string side. The main positive from that game is that none of the starters will miss the game against Arsenal tomorrow. The only potential absentee was Ousmane Dembele but he avoided serious injury last midweek against Arsenal.

Arsenal team news:

Arteta's side underwhelmed in last weekend's game against Bournemouth. The Cherries ran out 1-2 winners at the Emirates, but it is difficult to read much into the result as the players had one eye on the second leg against PSG. Arteta could not rotate on the weekend as he is still without Jorginho (lung), Gabriel Jesus (knee), Kai Havertz (hamstring), Gabriel Magalhaes (hamstring), and Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee). In more positive news, Thomas Partey will be back from the suspension he received against Real Madrid.

Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup:
Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Ruiz, Vitinha, Neves; Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia

Arsenal possible starting lineup:
Raya; Timber, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly; Odegaard, Partey, Rice; Saka, Merino, Martinelli

Prediction: PSG 0-2 Arsenal

Arsenal will go all out as they know this is their best chance of silverware this year. PSG must be wary of this as the Gunners are more than capable of getting themselves back into the tie. The North London club has the defence that can keep PSG at bay, so it's just a matter of whether they can take the chances that fall their way.
