Bayern, Arsenal, PSG, Atletico – Who Will Win The Champions League?

After what has been an exciting campaign in this season’s elite European club competition, we’re down to just four clubs, with holders PSG set to play Bayern Munich, while Arsenal are set to face Atletico Madrid in what will be two great semi-final encounters!

Probably at least two clubs who, if you’d have had to guess the last four eight months ago, wouldn’t be there, though Arsenal topped the qualifying phase with a 100 percent record, while the Spaniards have proven to be tough opponents.

There are numerous sub-plots to these semi-finals; Atleti manager, Diego Simeone leaving at the end of the season after over 15 years in charge, Arsenal, meanwhile are desperate for silverware with their Premier League title quest in danger of faltering. PSG are bidding to retain the trophy, while Bayern Munich talisman, Harry Kane could finally get his hands on a major European trophy after his Tottenham side failed to beat Liverpool in 2019.

Kane Could Be The Difference

The firepower that Bayern have is devastating; Kane has 32 Bundesliga goals and 12 in the Champions League this term and is considered the most prolific striker in Europe right now. Not only this, he is everywhere on the pitch; something that PSG will need to contend with.

And then there is the likes of Michael Olise and Luis Diaz either side of him; both of them are mercurial talents and currently in great form. Of course, Serge Gnabry and Nicolas Jackson, further add to their embarrassment of attacking riches.

Meanwhile, PSG will likely be confident of breaching their rearguard and over two legs, we could see a repeat of the last round against Real Madrid which was effectively a competition to see who could score the most.

You would probably argue that the holders are the most defensively solid, though if Kane is in the mood, it could really be game over by the second leg. If this is the case, your odds are unlikely to be favourable, though you may find an entertaining online football-themed slot at Spin Casino should you still be wanting something related.

Arsenal Could Yet Spring A Surprise

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta

Probably, the Gunners are the dark horses to lift this trophy, because the Spaniards are tough opponents and well organised. That said, Mikel Arteta has somewhat of a conundrum. After leading the Premier League title race all season, they now find themselves just three points ahead of Manchester City who have a game in hand and in a Champions League semi-final, that Arteta could probably do without.

Granted, it is a chance of silverware, though realistically, either Bayern or PSG are going to win the competition, with Arsenal looking slightly jaded after a tough campaign. They could achieve what many would see as the impossible and win the double; stranger things have happened.

Though it would be the perfect emotional send-off for Atletico to win it for Simeone, after reaching the final twice in his reign. Third time lucky, it could well be!
