Latest PSG vs Flamengo football match prediction
After a season in which they virtually won every possible title, the French giants are now feeling just how difficult it will be to conquer trophies once again.
They missed the chance to win their first world title this summer when they were beaten 3-0 by Chelsea in the Club World Cup final, and are now one point behind Lens in the Ligue 1 title race after 16 rounds.
Luis Enrique's team entered this match with a three-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, including two clean sheets.
PSG have earned points in eight of their last nine official away games, but have also dropped points in four of those matches.
Their last appearance in a cup final in Qatar marked the beginning of a successful period for the club, when they beat Monaco 1-0 in Doha to win the Trophée des Champions, before going on to win three more titles in the same year.
Wednesday's match will be only the second time PSG have faced a Brazilian side, following their 0-1 defeat to Botafogo in the Club World Cup group stage last summer.
It's been a long time since Flamengo came this close to the Intercontinental Cup, but they deserve to be in the final after their dominant performance against the Egyptian side right from the start.
This means Flamengo are just one match away from winning their second Intercontinental Cup title in history, after their 1981 triumph in Tokyo when they beat Liverpool 3-0.
The team from Rio is aiming for its fourth world title on Wednesday, and its third trophy of the year, after already winning the Challenger Cup and the Derby of the Americas.
Since November, coach Filipe Luis and his team have suffered only one defeat in official matches, winning both the Copa Libertadores and Brasileiro Serie A titles within a single week.
Mengao are unbeaten in their last three official away matches, but have dropped points in three of their four previous away games.
This will be the first time Flamengo has faced a French team in an official competition. At last summer's Club World Cup, they had a one-win-one-loss record against European representatives, defeating Chelsea – who went on to win the tournament – 3-1, before being eliminated by Bayern Munich with a 2-4 loss.
