Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will be aiming for another silverware after their maiden Champions League triumph when the Ligue 1 giants take on German heavyweights Bayern Munich in the quarterfinal of the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup 2025 on Saturday.
Both PSG and Bayern Munich have experienced a defeat in the group stage. But they overcame those defeats and overwhelmed their pre-quarterfinal opponents to qualify for the quarterfinals. While PSG destroyed Lionel Messi's Inter Miami 4-0, Bayern Munich outclassed Flamengo 4-2.
Ousmane Dembele, who missed the group stage with a thigh injury, returned to action against Inter Miami. The Frenchman could possibly start against Bayern Munich. On the other hand, Bayern Munich will have the services of Jamal Musiala after recovering from a long-term knee injury.
In total, PSG and Bayern Munich have played 14 matches against each other with the German side winning eight games while the Ligue 1 club were able to win six games. No game ended in draws.
The last time both these teams met, it was during the Champions League earlier this year, with Bayern Munich winning the game 1-0 at the Allianz Arena in Germany. This will be their 15th meet.
PSG: Donnarumma (GK), Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes, Neves, Vitinha, F. Ruiz, Doue, Barcola, Kvaratskhelia.
Bayern Munich: Neuer (GK), Laimer, Upamecano, Tah, Stanisic, Kimmich, Goretzka, Olise, Musiala, Coman, Kane.
