Sportradar data: 75% of bets back PSG to beat Arsenal in Champions League final

Paris Saint-Germain is attracting the bulk of pre-match betting ahead of Saturday’s UEFA Champions League Final against Arsenal, according to new data published Wednesday (28 May 2026) by Sportradar’s Managed Trading Services (MTS).

Sportradar, which says it processes betting tickets for more than 250 sportsbooks worldwide, reported that 75% of bets are backing PSG to win the final, versus 25% for Arsenal. The company said the split includes both 90-minute result betting (1×2) and outright winner betting, which includes extra time and penalties.

That weighting differs from the broader tournament winner market, which includes tickets placed throughout the competition on either club to lift the trophy. Sportradar said Arsenal attracted 56% of those bets compared to PSG on 44%.

In goalscorer markets, Sportradar said confidence is concentrated on PSG attackers. Ousmane Dembélé leads with around 46% of tickets to score, followed by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia on approximately 28%. Arsenal players “feature far less prominently,” Sportradar said, with no individual exceeding 5% of betting tickets; Viktor Gyokeres recorded 5.11%, followed by Eberechi Eze (3.46%), Bukayo Saka (2%), Declan Rice (1.7%), Martin Odegaard (1.21%) and Kai Havertz (1.15%).

Sportradar also pointed to overall betting activity across the competition, reporting more than 513 million betting tickets placed on the UEFA Champions League during the tournament.
