Gary Neville has rated Arsenal’s chances of coming from behind to beat PSG and reach the Champions League final.

Arsenal travel to Paris on Wednesday night hoping to overturn a one-goal deficit and book their place in the 2025 Champions League final.

Mikel Arteta’s side eliminated European champions Real Madrid in the quarter-finals but were second-best in the first leg of their semi-final tie with French champions PSG.

Both teams suffered defeats this weekend, Arsenal losing 2-1 at home to Bournemouth and PSG losing by the same scoreline at Strasbourg.

Neville admits Arsenal’s loss was a ‘worry’ given the strong team Arteta selected but still ‘genuinely thinks’ the Gunners can go to PSG and keep their Champions League dream alive.

‘The worry for Arsenal is they played their strongest side [against Bournemouth] and still lost,’ the former Manchester United and England defender said on his Sky Sports podcast

‘But I genuinely think Arsenal can do it. I think they can go to PSG and do it. 

‘I went there with David Beckham once to watch Real Madrid play there and I saw them [PSG] get nervous. 

‘There’s such an expectation around PSG winning the Champions League. It will be hostile for the first 20 mins and if they score it will continue to be hostile.

‘However, if you can get a goal – which Arsenal definitely can either from a set-piece or a counter-attack or a bit of brilliance – I think you can see and feel the mood changing in that stadium. 

‘I think Arsenal are in with a shout this week. It’s a huge game for Arsenal, it’s a season-defining game and could be career-defining for some of the players if they come from behind to beat PSG. 

‘Beating PSG and reaching the Champions League final would be an incredible achievement.’ 

Rio Ferdinand predicts Champions League finalists

Arsenal and PSG, both seeking their maiden Champions League trophy, will face either Barcelona or Inter Milan in the final on May 31.

Revealing his prediction for the Champions League final line-up, Neville’s former Manchester United team-mate Rio Ferdinand said: ‘I’m going to go Barcelona against Paris Saint-Germain.

‘If there is a team who can go to PSG and win it’s Arsenal. I don’t think it’s about ability at this stage, I think it’s about mentality and belief.

‘In Bukayo Saka they’ve got a matchwinner who can turn the game on its head. There’s positives there but if the mindset isn’t right, they will get smoked, I’m telling you.

‘The problem for Arsenal is PSG are a proper team, I don’t think they’re invincible but they’ve been the best team in the Champions League.

‘If you’re a football purist, you want the two most attacking and free teams in the final.

‘PSG and Barcelona are the two most attacking and free teams in terms of letting their attacking players just go.

‘I think that would make for an unbelievable spectacle and throw us into a different cycle where managers attack more.

‘Luis Enrique and Hansi Flick could be the managers to follow in terms of their philosophy instead of Pep Guardiola who has been great at it in a great era.’

Barcelona and Inter Milan played out a thrilling 3-3 in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final in Spain.

Ian Wright admitted he was ‘very surprised’ by Arsenal’s tactics during their Champions League semi-final first leg defeat to PSG.

The Gunners stunned defending European champions Real Madrid in the last round and were hoping for more success against Paris Saint-Germain.

But Arsenal will need to overturn a one-goal deficit in Paris next week after suffering a 1-0 defeat at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night.

PSG dominated the early exchanges and Ousmane Dembele’s 4th-minute goal was enough to separate the sides.

Wright was ‘very surprised’ by Arsenal’s subdued start to the tie and says the Gunners ‘missed a trick’ by not taking the game to PSG.

‘I don’t want to be negative about the team but I’m very surprised by the start of the game,’ he said on the Wrighty’s House podcast.

‘I wasn’t expecting that start. To be honest I was expecting PSG to back off but it was the other way around, it was the opposite.

‘We should have been pressing them but it didn’t happen. That’s the disappointing thing, without being too negative.

‘I think we really missed a trick in the way we started, we didn’t take advantage of the crowd who were ready to scream and shout.

‘I think we got away with out really because we didn’t start like I thought we would, I was very surprised by that.

‘I would love to hear Mikel Arteta’s post-match interview because I want to hear what he says about the start.

‘I cannot fathom that you have a team like PSG come to your place and your tactics are to sit off them and let them play it out from the back and ease across the halfway line.’

PSG have arguably been the standout team in this year’s Champions League, having eliminated Liverpool and Aston Villa in the last two rounds.

The French champions are 90 minutes away from the Champions League final but Wright still has hope that his beloved Arsenal can pull off a comeback.

‘It’s only 1-0 but PSG did look impressive,’ Wright added. ‘But anyone would if you give them that much time and space in a semi-final at your place.

‘PSG are going to try and finish that game in the first 20 minutes and Arsenal have to be very much ready for that.

‘We’re in the semi-finals and this is it for our season, the league is gone. This is all we’ve got left. So I was expecting a performance because this is it now.

‘I have got confidence in us because we’ve shown it before, we’ve shown we’ve got the balls to do it. I just hope we can.’

Arsenal return to Premier League action against Bournemouth this weekend before preparing for their huge clash in the French capital.

PSG, already crowned Ligue 1 champions, visit Strasbourg on Saturday.
