On the other hand, Bayern presently seems like an unbeatable side after an impressive 8-2 win over Lionel Messi led FC Barcelona in the Quarter Finals and another 3-0 win over Lyon in the UEFA Champions League Semi-Finals. A side that boasts of firepower in the form of Robert Lewandowski with 15 goals in the UEFA Champions League this season, FC Bayern Munich has been unbeaten in their last 5 games. The team also has a great track record in their Final performance, having bagged the title 5 times in 10 Final appearances.
The UEFA Champions League Final is the second European Cup to feature a German and French team head-to-head, after the 1976 Final between Bayern and Saint-Étienne. In his 19 appearances for PSG in the Champions League for Paris Saint-Germain, Neymar has been directly involved in 23 goals for the French club. This includes a total of 14 goals to his name and 9 assists. Lewandowski has scored in 9 consecutive Champions League matches, with only Ronaldo to beat (11 consecutive matches) to achieve the highest number of consecutive Champions League matches with at least a goal scored.
Doubtful: Kurzawa (thigh), Navas (thigh)
Doubtful: Boateng (muscular), Pavard (ankle)
