Paris Saint-Germain are the dominant team in France and consist of one of the most expensive squads in Europe with players such as Edinson Cavani, Angel Di Maria and Thiago Silva.

Royal Challengers Bangalore are one of the top teams in the IPL and boast of some of the top players in the world across all formats in Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Chris Gayle and Shane Watson. However, they constantly fall short of winning the elusive title, despite thrilling fans all over the world with their exciting brand of cricket.

PSG face a similar problem, having failed to win the highly-coveted Champions League. Despite playing well to beat one of the best teams in Europe 4-0 in the first leg this season, they crumbled in the second leg to exit the tournament.

Both the teams will be hoping that lady luck will smile on them for once so that they can win their respective titles.
