Date: Sunday 23 August Kick-off: 20:00 BST Venue: Estadio da Luz, Lisbon
Paris St-Germain take on Bayern Munich in a mouth-watering Champions League final on Sunday - with both teams looking to create history for themselves.
A competition which started in June 2019 with the preliminary round comes to a climax between arguably the best side in world football against one of the planet's finest forward lines.
While ruthless Bayern chase only the second European domestic treble in their proud history, PSG are looking to be crowned champions of Europe for the first time.
BBC Radio 5 Live's European football experts got together to discuss the showpiece final as the powerhouses of France and Germany prepare for a showdown in Lisbon without spectators.
'The best team v the best player'
Having won both the Bundesliga, with a 13-point cushion, and the German Cup, Hansi Flick's side are on course to match the achievements of Jupp Heynckes' class of 2012-13.
"The 2013 team were in many ways perfect but then they had players that probably wouldn't get into this team," German football expert Raphael Honigstein said.
Bayern have swept all before them in this season's competition, including the 8-2 quarter-final thrashing of five-time winners Barcelona.
They have scored 42 goals in 10 games, including 10 in two group matches against Tottenham and seven over two legs against Chelsea in the last 16.
Trying to stop them from winning a sixth European cup is a PSG side whose forward line consists of Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Angel di Maria.
In 19 Champions League appearances for PSG, Neymar has been directly involved in 23 goals, scoring 14 times and assisting nine.
"Bayern are the best team in Europe," said Spanish football expert Guillem Balague.
"It is the best team against the team with the best player, in Neymar. You have, in him, someone who can do something out of nothing like nobody else in the world right now.
"He does nearly impossible things. He is perhaps the only player who can win a game on his own."
French football expert Matt Spiro believes a Paris St-Germain win would justify the club's decision to pay Barcelona a world record fee of 222m euros (£200m) for Neymar in August 2017.
"Outside of France I think it's hard for anyone to look at that transfer in any other way than he wanted lots and lots of money and to be a big star - but his attitude has made a big difference this season," said Spiro.
"It all changed for PSG in that [last-16] second leg against Borussia Dortmund [in March].
"Neymar epitomised this new spirit at PSG. Ever since, he has looked like a very happy and determined man."
