There were certainly some major upsets in the Champions League's return earlier this month, as the likes of Man City and Barcelona were given the axe, despite being heavily favoured.

Despite that, there are two of football's most popular clubs in this year's Champions League finals - PSG and Bayern Munich.

The team from Bayern Munich is a buzzsaw right now, as they have sliced their way to the finals with relative ease. Bayern Munich is playing as a cohesive unit right now, and it seems as though they will be hard to beat. The bookmakers agree, which is why Bayern Munich has been installed as the favourite to win.

PSG, however, has a boatload of talent as well, and anything can happen when two teams clash in a single game to decide it all. A goal post here, an own goal there - anything can happen in the Champions League finals.

Bayern Munich has won the title five times in the past, with their most recent win coming in 2013.

PSG, on the other hand, has never won the title.

Paris Saint-Germain has spent heavily to gain success in the football world, so this would obviously be a massive victory for the club.

They are, however, considered the underdogs, and it will be interesting to see if they can stop the wrecking ball from Bayern Munich.
