I predict that paper rex will use their double map ban to ban ascent and haven, two very strong fnatic maps.
If they can tidy up their sunset and pearl, paper rex has two very strong maps that are typically on fnatic's less comfortable side.
Icebox, lotus, and split are decent for paper rex, but it is still not going to be easy facing fnatic on those maps.
I think that for paper rex to win, they need to be prepared and sharp with their aim. Alfajer looks to be ready to win the whole tournament by himself, and paper rex needs to be on their A game to make sure fnatic's mechanically sharp players don't run them over. They also need to make sure they are ready for those tougher maps and fnatic's playstyle.
Most importantly, paper rex has to play confidently and coolly. They have been through enough to the point where they are absolutely capable of winning a grand final. But if they start tilting, the game is just going to be over before it even finishes.
Paper rex has a good chance at taking the trophy, but they have to prove in the match that they want it more than fnatic does.
