Inter Milan vs Barcelona (Tuesday 8pm)
The second leg of the semi-final between Inter Milan and Barcelona will have high expectations after a thrilling 3-3 draw in the first leg in Spain.
Inter took an early 2-0 lead in the first leg, but Barcelona fought back strongly to level the score twice at 2-2 and 3-3.
Barcelona's manager Hansi Flick will be looking for a more focused display from his team in Milan, while Inter might have to cope without their top striker Lautaro Martinez due to injury.
Martinez's potential absence will be a major blow for Inter, who have struggled to score goals recently and had to rely on a penalty to secure a 1-0 win in Serie A over Verona.
Barcelona will be boosted by the return of their top scorer Robert Lewandowski, and their attacking quartet of Ferran Torres, Raphinha, Dani Olmo, and Lamine Yamal will be aiming to secure a narrow victory in the second leg.
Predicted Score: Inter Milan 1-2 Barcelona
Paris Saint-Germain vs Arsenal (Wednesday 8pm)
Paris Saint-Germain secured a crucial 1-0 win in the first leg against Arsenal, thanks to an early goal from Ousmane Dembele. This sets up an intriguing return leg in Paris.
Arsenal suffered a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to Bournemouth in the Premier League, but they are expected to put up a strong fight against PSG.
Arsenal's impressive away performance in the quarter-final against Real Madrid, where they won 2-1 at the Bernabeu, shows their ability to perform on the road.
PSG's attacking prowess troubled English clubs Manchester City, Liverpool, and Aston Villa, who faced a total of 29 shots on target during their visits to the Parc des Princes this season.
With a lead to defend, PSG might adopt a more cautious approach, giving Arsenal the chance to make it a tense evening for the home fans.
Arsenal have been solid defensively, conceding just eight goals in 13 Champions League matches, but they struggled to breach PSG's defense in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium.
PSG already wrapped up the Ligue 1 title and had the luxury of resting key players in their recent defeat to Strasbourg.
While PSG have a slight concern over Dembele's fitness, they are expected to hold off Arsenal and secure their spot in the Champions League final.
Predicted Score: Paris Saint-Germain 1-1 Arsenal
