Arsenal's strongest lineup for the Champions League final: No less formidable than PSG!

Arsenal stands a good chance of fielding their most powerful lineup for the Champions League final versus PSG, with several core players now ready to play. This is seen as a huge momentum that will enable Arteta and his team to aim for the club's historic first European Cup.

On the evening of May 30 (Vietnam time), Arsenal will enter the Champions League final facing PSG in Budapest. On the eve of the match, coach Mikel Arteta received positive news as defender Jurrien Timber is racing against time to be available for the most important game of the season.

The Dutch international has not played since mid-March due to injury, but has returned to training with the squad this week and traveled with Arsenal to Budapest. On the evening of May 30, Arsenal will have an open training session before the match, and coach Mikel Arteta will also provide an update on Timber's condition during the press conference.

The return of the 24-year-old defender is considered crucial for Arsenal, especially as he may directly face PSG's dangerous attacking threat Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The Arsenal coaching staff is eager for Timber to be in optimal physical condition to start the match.

Besides Timber, Arsenal also received more good news as Mikel Merino has fully recovered. Currently, Ben White is the only confirmed absentee for the London club.

In case Timber is not ready to play, new signing Cristhian Mosquera is likely to be given the opportunity to hold down the right side of the defense.

In midfield, young talent Myles Lewis-Skelly has earned Arteta's trust with his impressive performances recently. However, the 19-year-old is unlikely to compete with Martin Zubimendi for a starting spot in this important final.

Up front, captain Martin Odegaard is expected to lead Arsenal toward the championship Champions League title first in the club's history. If they triumph, the Norwegian midfielder will become the first Arsenal captain to lift the most prestigious club trophy in Europe.

Meanwhile, Leandro Trossard is showing impressive form and is likely to take the left-wing position. This could force new signing Eberechi Eze to start the match on the bench.

The striker position is the toughest puzzle for Arteta. Viktor Gyokeres is Arsenal's top scorer this season with 21 goals and has been in excellent form recently. However, in big matches, Arteta often places his trust in Kai Havertz. Having fully recovered from injury, the German international is considered a strong candidate to lead the attack against PSG.

Predicted Arsenal starting lineup against PSG:

David Raya; Jurrien Timber, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhães, Riccardo Calafiori; Declan Rice, Myles Lewis-Skelly; Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard, Leandro Trossard; Kai Havertz.
