Key stats
- PSG have only conceded one goal in the whole tournament so far.

Correct score prediction: PSG 2-0 Bayern Munich
Recent treble-winners PSG are aiming to make it an unprecedented quadruple of silverware by winning the CWC, but they face a tough task against Bayern. While they both possess considerable firepower, it may be the Parisians' more formidable defence that could help them get over the line here.

Most recent H2Hs: Bayern have bossed PSG
Bayern have actually won the last four H2Hs to-nil, which will surely give them some form of encouragement in terms of potentially causing an upset. PSG are a completely different outfit compared to before though, having recently won the treble.

Bayern Munich preview: Kim close to return
Kim Min-jae is close to a return from injury, but this match will likely come too soon for the South Korean central defender. Leroy Sane has now officially left Bayern to join Turkish giants Galatasaray, after featuring for the Bavarians earlier in the tournament.
Predicted lineup: Neuer (GK); Laimer, Tah, Upamecano, Stanisic; Kimmich, Goretska; Olise, Musiala, Coman & Kane

Player to watch: Joao Neves
Joao Neves opened the scoring against Inter Miami with a brace inside the first 40 minutes. The Portugal international is not renowned for his goals, but he can certainly come up with key moments.
PSG have a formidable midfield trio with Neves, Vitinha and Fabian Ruiz. Should they start together as expected, Bayern Munich's midfield duo of Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka may not be able to cope.
