+ “Best in the world without the ball”
No team has conceded as few goals in Champions League football as Spanish coach Mikel Arteta's Arsenal. In 14 matches, the London team has only conceded six goals. Two of those came in the final match of the league phase, which was also meaningless.
"Arsenal are the best defensive team in Europe and have been for a few years," Paris coach Luis Enrique has stated.
PSG, in turn, have conceded 22 goals.
+ Most goals and dangerous corners
PSG's greatest strength lies in their offense. With Spanish coach Luis Enrique at the helm and forwards like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola, PSG have scored 44 goals in the Champions League this season, the most of any team.
The French giants have also delivered in the biggest matches. When PSG won the title for the first time in the club's history last year, they beat Inter 5-0. That is the largest margin of victory in a CL final in the competition's 70-year history, according to the AP news agency.
Arsenal have instead become specialists in set pieces. According to statistics service Opta, Arsenal scored 19 goals from corners during the Premier League season, a record in the English league.
+ 20 years since last
The last time the "Gunners" played in the CL final was in 2006. It ended with a red card for goalkeeper Jens Lehmann and a heavy 1-2 defeat to Barcelona.
It was also the last time Sweden was represented in a men's final. Fredrik Ljungberg played for Arsenal and Henrik Larsson was praised for his successful substitution in the winning team.
In this year's final, the Swedish flag will be carried by Arsenal's top scorer Viktor Gyökeres.
+ New kick-off time
For the first time in 15 years, the final will not start at 9 p.m. local time. Kick-off at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest, Hungary, will instead be at 6 p.m. local time. The match will be broadcast on Viaplay.
