The clash in Budapest has the newly crowned English champion going up against a swaggering PSG side that dumped it out of the competition last year at the semi-final stage.

Arsenal's first domestic triumph in 22 years means it is going into Sunday's (AEST) showpiece with its tails up and looking to confirm its status among Europe's elite.

The Gunners are also boosted by the return of right-sided Dutch full back Jurrien Timber, who has been out injured since March, who if he plays will be up against PSG's exhilarating Georgian winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

"We have the opportunity tomorrow to write a new chapter in the history of the football club," Arteta said.

"We have to play tomorrow with such a clarity, a lot of courage and desire to win, but we have those three aspects."

The Spaniard said the Premier League win had not eased the pressure on his side, rather it had fuelled the players' fire.

"The ambition is bigger," Arteta said. "We have won and we want the second one,that is all we have been talking about. That has to be a platform to reach bigger destinations."

Much has been made of the demands of the Premier League compared to France's Ligue 1, but Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka said there would be no fatigue given the trophy at stake.

"A game like this is not going to be decided on minutes, it is going to be decided by moments," Saka said. "It is a massive opportunity to do something special."

Arteta said he still felt Arsenal had been unlucky to lose to PSG last year and praised their manager Luis Enrique as an "inspiration" and architect of his side's success.

There was little room for sentiment otherwise though.

"They [PSG] are defending the trophy, they are the champions and we are here to take it away from them," Arteta said.
