PSG stormed to the Ligue 1 title, losing just once on their way to their 13th domestic title. Luis Enrique’s side accumulated 84 points in the season, as well as impressing in the Champions League thus far. Les Parisiens are yet to win a European trophy, so the pressure is on the French side.
Inter Milan were pipped to the Serie A title on the final day by Napoli, denying them their 21st title. Simone Inzaghi’s side have also won three Champions League titles and will look to avenge their 2023 final loss against Manchester City.
PSG vs Inter Milan Bet Builder Tips
Bet 1: Alessandro Bastoni Over 2.5 Tackles and Over 0.5 Fouls – 17/10 - Bet365
Alessandro Bastoni is a key compartment of Inter’s back three, with his aggression crucial on the left side of the defence. The 26-year-old is averaging 1.80 tackles per 90, hitting at least three tackles in his last five – including both legs against Barcelona. In the Champions League, his averages rises to 2.28 per 90.
He is averaging 1.50 fouls per 90, registering a foul in 10 of his 11 Champions League games (with super sub). PSG’s fluid attack have caused plenty of issues for defences in the competition. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is likely to play on the right, with Bastoni to drift wide to cover for the marauding wing-back Federico Dimarco.
Kvaratskhelia is PSG’s leading foul-drawer, averaging 1.83 fouls won per 90, as well as being dispossessed 2.45 times per 90.
Bet 2: Alessandro Bastoni Over 2.5 Tackles and Over 0.5 Fouls, Henrikh Mkhitaryan over 1.5 Fouls – 11/2 – bet365
Henrikh Mkhitarayan seems to be aging like fine wine. The 36-year-old is a mainstay in the Inter Milan midfield, playing 48 times in all competitions. The Armenian is averaging 1.29 fouls per 90, making at least two fouls in four of his last five Champions League starts.
Bet 3: Alessandro Bastoni Over 2.5 Tackles and Over 0.5 Fouls, Henrikh Mkhitaryan over 1.5 Fouls and under 2.5 Goals – 11/1 – Bet365
While PSG games in France have been high-scoring (3.74 goals per game) and Inter Milan games (3.00), Champions League finals tend to be lower-scoring. The last six finals have seen under 2.5 goals, with four of them being settled by just one goal, including Inter Milan’s last Champions League final with Manchester City and PSG’s 1-0 loss against Bayern Munich. Inzaghi is likely to set his side up to be hard to beat, so a low scoring affair could be in store.
