Barcelona’s quest for a second consecutive Champions League title sees them face Lyon – the most successful team in the history of the competition – at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

The French club have lifted the trophy a record seven times and won all of their last five finals, including a 3-1 win against Wolfsburg in 2020.

Barcelona have clinched the Spanish league title already while Lyon are five points clear of PSG with just two games to play in France.

The French side also knocked their compatriots out of this competition at the semi-final stage while their opponents on Saturday beat Wolfsburg thanks to a five-goal display in the first leg at the Camp Nou.

To get their hands on a third Champions League in four years, Barcelona will have to beat Lyon for the first time ever in this competition – having lost all three previous meetings including a 4-1 hammering in the 2019 final.

Our prediction: Barcelona v Lyon

The Champions League has been Lyon’s competition but Barcelona could continue to establish their own European dynasty with a victory in Turin.

They’ve never beaten the French side but they have oozed confidence this season and they may just put right that record on the biggest stage.

These are two teams that like to play football and we may see some goals, with the trophy heading back to Spain when the final whistle comes.

Our prediction: Barcelona 3-2 Lyon (12/1 at bet365)
