Serge Gnabry, the Bayern attacking midfielder, says they are desperate to win the treble having already won this season's Bundesliga and German Cup (DFB Pokal).
 
"We're usually very strong at the back, upfront as well," Gnabry said.
 
"We knew about the space behind their back five and tried to get in behind time and time again [against Lyon]. That was the key to success, especially in the first half. 
 
"We're desperate to win the treble, and we're going to give it our all on Sunday to win the final."
 
The last competitive meeting between PSG and Bayern was on 05 December 2017.
