The stage is set for an exciting Champions League semifinal second leg between Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal. PSG holds a slim 1-0 advantage from the first leg in London, thanks to an early goal from Ousmane Dembele and a stellar performance by goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
With the away goals rule no longer in effect, Arsenal needs a one-goal victory to force extra time or a two-goal win to advance outright. A draw would be sufficient for PSG to reach the final against Inter Milan.
Donnarumma retains his starting spot in goal for PSG, protected by a back four of Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho, and Nuno Mendes. Former Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia starts on the wing, joined in attack by Desire Doue and Bradley Barcloa. Surprisingly, Dembele is not in the starting lineup.
For Arsenal, Italian players Riccardo Calafiori and Jorginho are named to the bench. Myles Lewis-Skelly keeps his place at left-back, with Jakub Kiwior, William Saliba, and Jurrien Timber completing the defense. Bukayo Saka, Mikel Merino, and Gabriel Martinelli lead the attack for Mikel Arteta`s side.
