Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan are set to clash in the Champions League final on Saturday in Munich, with both clubs eager to claim European glory.

PSG, led by captain Marquinhos, is confident despite losing star Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid. Marquinhos said, "The club has learnt as time has gone on about how to deal with games like these, what it needs to do." The French side has already secured a domestic league and cup double this season and reached the final by defeating Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal.

PSG boss Luis Enrique aims to add a second Champions League trophy to his resume, having won it with Barcelona in 2015. He challenged his players to "make history" by winning PSG's first-ever Champions League title.

Inter Milan, seeking their fourth Champions League crown after victories in 1964, 1965, and 2010, have shown resilience. Coach Simone Inzaghi expressed confidence, inspired by their path to the final, which included wins over Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

Despite losing the Serie A title to Napoli, Inzaghi emphasized the team's mental strength: "The mental side of the game is important. The players have worked very hard and of course we have put that domestic disappointment to one side."

Inter also aims to overcome the disappointment of last year's final loss to Manchester City. The match at Munich's Allianz Arena promises a thrilling contest between two European heavyweights.

Key stats:
- PSG eliminated three Premier League teams en route to the final.
- Inter has won the Champions League three times, last in 2010.
- PSG seeks to become only the second French club to win the title since 1993.

The final is highly anticipated, with both teams determined to etch their names in football history.
