PSG and Aston Villa are clashing for the 2026 UEFA Super Cup, the first major trophy of the 2026-27 season at stake. The 2026 UEFA Super Cup final has arrived, with Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa clashing on Wednesday, Aug. 12, at Red Bull Arena in Salzburg, Austria. Competing for the first European trophy of the 2026–27 season, PSG are looking to win in back-to-back editions. PSG earned their place in the final after winning the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League over Arsenal. Following a 1-1 draw through 120 minutes, the Parisian club secured a 5-4 victory in the penalty shootout to capture back-to-back Champions League titles, the second in franchise history. Meanwhile, Aston Villa secured their spot in the Super Cup by defeating SC Freiburg to win the UEFA Europa League. The Villans posted a dominant 3-0 victory at Tupras Stadium, allowing manager Unai Emery to lift his fifth Europa League trophy across six final appearances. PSG and Aston Villa have met twice before, making the Super Cup their third all-time clash. Their initial encounters came during the 2024-25 Champions League quarterfinals, where PSG took the first leg 3-1 before Villa won the second leg 3-2, allowing the French champions to advance 5-4 on aggregate.

A victory for PSG against Aston Villa on Wednesday would crown the French club as UEFA Super Cup champions for the second consecutive year. Because the competition is a single-leg match since the 1998 edition, the Villans would not have an opportunity to overturn the result in a second leg. Additionally, Paris Saint-Germain would become only the third club in history to capture back-to-back UEFA Super Cup titles. AC Milan became the first team to accomplish the feat by winning in 1989 and 1990, while Real Madrid joined the list by sweeping the 2016 and 2017 editions. A win would also elevate Luis Enrique into a tie for the third-most UEFA Super Cup titles among managers, adding to his 2015 triumph with Barcelona and last year’s victory with PSG. Reaching three Super Cup titles would put the Spanish manager one behind Pep Guardiola for second place and two behind all-time leader Carlo Ancelotti, who holds five. What happens if PSG draw against Aston Villa? If PSG and Aston Villa remain tied at the end of 90 minutes of regulation, the winner will be decided directly via a penalty shootout. Under current UEFA Super Cup regulations, extra time will not be played. As a result, the match will consist of two 45-minute halves plus stoppage time, with a penalty shootout serving as the immediate tiebreaker if neither club holds an advantage at the final whistle. What happens if PSG lose against Aston Villa? If PSG fall to Aston Villa, the English side will lift the UEFA Super Cup for the second time in franchise history, joining their 1982 triumph. Meanwhile, it would mark PSG’s first loss in a Super Cup final, bringing their all-time record in the event to 1-1. Furthermore, a victory would deliver Unai Emery his first career UEFA Super Cup trophy. Although his five Europa League titles previously earned him five Super Cup appearances, four ended in defeats to reigning Champions League winners, leaving the Spanish manager searching for his breakthrough against PSG.

Ex-Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey thinks turbulence in the Premier League can prove significant in the Gunners competing to defend their title next season. Mikel Arteta's side have enjoyed relative stability off the field and have added a key player in Bruno Guimaraes in a bid to bolster their midfield. It was a brilliant season for them and going so deep in the other competitions as well sets them up nicely now to really attack not just next season but the next few years.
Myles Lewis-Skelly has been offered to Chelsea for £45m (Getty) Chelsea have rejected the chance to sign Myles Lewis-Skelly from Arsenal, according to reports. The 19-year-old started just five Premier League games last season but a strong end to the campaign saw Mikel Arteta select him in a midfield role for Arsenal’s defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final. However, Lewis-Skelly’s hopes of securing more minutes in Arsenal’s midfield will be dented by the club’s decision to sign Bruno Guimaraes in a £75 million deal from Newcastle United.

The report adds that Lewis-Skelly is not exploring a move away from Arsenal, while the club are not actively looking to sell the England international. Speaking at the end of last season, Arteta praised Lewis-Skelly’s mentality after he was overlooked for a starting role for the majority of Arsenal’s Premier League title-winning campaign. ‘I’ve been tough on him. He had a spectacular season last year when he jumped into the first team,’ Arteta said. ‘He had some difficult moments after that but he stayed very humble, very focused, very aligned with what we wanted to do, and I knew he was ready. ‘He’s been showing in training every day the opportunities that he had to play. He’s done it and today he really stepped up and I thought he had an incredible performance.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.
