Saturday's all-German Champions League final at Wembley features two vastly accomplished sides who play a similar brand of football.

But which of Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich have the more talented players?

Tom Adams assesses the likely starting XIs...

BORUSSIA DORTMUND (4-2-3-1)

GK: Roman Weidenfeller (Champions League appearances in 2012/13: 12)

The Dortmund keeper has a reputation as a smart shot-stopper and has amassed 266 Bundesliga appearances since joining the club from Kaiserslautern in the summer of 2002. Weidenfeller has never been deemed good enough to join the prestigious

A year ago this week, Bayern Munich goalkeeper Hans-Jorg Butt was the captain of his team in a friendly against the Netherlands.

The 38-year-old had enjoyed a wonderful career playing for Hamburg, Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. He was involved in three Champions League finals. And lost all three.

First, when his Leverkusen side reached the 2002 final against Real Madrid, a game remembered for Zinedine Zidane’s perfect volley - but by not Butt.

"We were 2-1 down and I headed wide of the post in the final minutes," he says. Not for the first time, Butt’s name would have been on the

One of Juergen Klopp’s most memorable lines this season was his take on Borussia Dortmund’s rivals and fellow Champions League finalists Bayern Munich back in March. “Right now,” he said, “it’s a bit like what the Chinese do in economics or industry. Watch the others and plagiarise what they do. Take the same path, only with more money and other players. And for the moment, you will be better again.”

For some imitation is the highest form of flattery. But not for Klopp. Bayern, he felt, had copied Dortmund’s playing style, their 'gegenpressing'. How unoriginal. A month later, it would also

Ahead of the Champions League final between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, we take a look at some of the key battles on and off the pitch.

First let's start with the men behind the teams - they couldn't provide more of a contrast.

1. Heynckes v Klopp

Jupp Heynckes is a wise old head, with a glittering CV boasting titles in several countries. He is a Steady Eddie as opposed to charismatic genius, although his success highlights how underrated a stable guiding hand can be for the big clubs with messy dressing rooms. It is a shame he is retiring as he has turned Bayern from a bickering

Much is made of Borussia Dortmund's attacking verve, but their success - particularly in the final third - is as much a result of hard work as flair.

Juergen Klopp's free-flowing youngsters are easy on the eye and on the league table, and their ability to overwhelm the best defences has got them to the Champions League final, where they face domestic rivals Bayern Munich.

But they are as much a product of Klopp's system, which demands an intensity unrivalled in European football and insists on the so-called flair players to quite literally put in the hard yards.

Defensive forwards -

Events in the French capital last week during Paris Saint-Germain's Ligue 1 title celebrations were a serious blow to the prestige of the club's Qatari owners and brought the issue of football-related violence back to the top of the agenda in the country.

Pictures of the destruction caused by troublemakers and of their clashes with riot police were seen all across the world last Monday night, completely removing the focus away from PSG's on-field success.

What the bemused PSG players and staff must have thought as they were ushered away from the stage set up for them at Trocadéro, across the

Franck Ribery's virtuoso performance in Bayern Munich's win over Borussia Moenchengladbach sees the Frenchman make our European Team of the Week.

Ribery scored a Zidane-esque volley for one of his two goals as Bayern came from 3-1 down to win 4-3 and also claimed two assists.

Kevin De Bruyne, on loan with Werder Bremen from Chelsea, also chipped in with two Bundesliga goals while Serie A was strongly represented by Fiorentina, who have two players in the XI after a convincing win over Pescara.

We couldn't ignore Kevin Nolan after he bagged a hat-trick in West Ham's win over Reading and Arsenal

Such has been Bayern Munich’s dominance of the 50th Bundesliga season that some might be surprised that a mere six of Jupp Heynckes’s men have made Eurosport’s team of the season.

With the season drawing to a close, eight Eurosport Bundesliga commentators and correspondents picked their team of the season based on a 4-2-3-1 formation. They were also asked to name a coach of the season and flop of the campaign.

With Bayern holding a record 22-point lead with one round of matches left, it was perhaps tempting to pick Bayern’s entire first XI. Record after record has fallen with Bayern garnering
