The title contains a bit too much information, so let’s explain a few details first. First, the year mentioned here does not refer to natural years, such as January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025; but refers to the time span. In a rough way, it can actually be said to be 12 months, or more than 360 days. To date, the topic today is probably October 2024 to September 2025. Maybe less than a year, but there is no need to be too accurate.

Second, especially emphasized, right and wrong with the Premier League giants. This is to avoid any disputes. After all, any Premier League team must play at least 19 Premier League teams within a year. But such statistics are meaningless. Therefore, the non-Premier League element must be reflected.

In fact, there is a third detail, which we will talk about later.

Okay, back to Paris Saint-Germain. Paris Saint-Germain is full of energy when participating in the Club World Cup, after all, they are coming with the halo of the Triple Crown. There is no doubt that in the 24-25 season, Paris Saint-Germain is the most successful team in Europe, especially the Champions League final, breaking the record of the largest score difference in the history of the Champions League finals 5-0. Inter Milan has become an embarrassing background board.

But in fact, Paris Saint-Germain can create such great glory in the Champions League, but the background is more than Inter Milan? Many people have discovered that Paris Saint-Germain stepped on the Premier League team and reached the final step by step. As early as the first stage, to be precise, Paris Saint-Germain met Arsenal on October 2, 2024. At that time, they lost 0:2, but in the semi-finals, Paris Saint-Germain completed its revenge with a double kill.

At the end of the first phase, Paris Saint-Germain met Manchester City again, with a big victory of 4:2.

The focus is on the knockout stage. Paris Saint-Germain first met Liverpool in the quarterfinals, then Aston Villa in the quarterfinals, and then against Arsenal in the semi-finals. The knockout season touched three Premier League teams, which reminded people of Real Madrid in the 21st to 22nd season. At that time, Real Madrid also encountered Chelsea, Manchester City, and Liverpool in the knockout season, and finally won the championship in one fell swoop. But Paris Saint-Germain touched one more Premier League team than Real Madrid at the time.

Okay, let's look at this Club World Cup. There are two participating teams in the Premier League, Manchester City and Chelsea. Paris Saint-Germain has already encountered Manchester City in the Champions League. If you touch it again, you will not increase the number of teams on this topic, but Chelsea will be different. From the 24th to 25th season, Chelsea played in the European Union and had no intersection with Paris Saint-Germain, so it couldn't be met. Although the Club World Cup requires coincidental divisions and positioning, in theory, Paris Saint-Germain has the opportunity to hit Chelsea. Once you meet, you will be the fifth Premier League team to be encountered in a year.

Now, it's time to throw out the third detail. Why are there 6? In fact, it is just a small probability event, or even a very small probability event, but in August, there was a sure-fire game waiting for Paris Saint-Germain - the European Super Cup.

Paris Saint-Germain is the Champions League champion and they are going to play against the Europa League champion Tottenham. So, if Chelsea can become the fifth, then Tottenham will definitely be the sixth. And this topic, Chelsea is just a variable. If it doesn't meet, then Tottenham will become the fifth one. It is also a historical record to meet 5 Premier League teams within a year.

In short, Paris Saint-Germain has been working with Premier League teams this year and is about to carry out the Premier League background board to the end. Didn’t it mean that the Premier League is the most competitive league in Europe? Paris Saint-German uses this to gilt itself. Next, it depends on whether Paris Saint-Germain can meet the Blues.
