Arsenal vs Real Madrid – Champions League: Live score, team news and updates as Spaniards’ team drops early as Gunners look to knock out holders and reach semi-final

Arsenal fans have experienced the full gamut of emotions this season, but ahead of tonight’s clash against Real Madrid, there is a real chance of making this campaign a truly historic one for the club.

The Gunners welcome reigning Champions League winners Real Madrid to north London this evening, hoping to inflict upon them a sizeable enough lead to defend in the Spanish capital next week.

Perhaps I’m being too harsh on Mikel Arteta’s men. With Bukayo Saka back in their ranks, they are more than capable of going to the Bernabeu and getting a result. Indeed, Opta have installed the Gunners as marginal favourites to progress to the last four of the competition.

For all the negative chatter around the club this season, on account of their disappointing league campaign, the chance at winning the club’s maiden European Cup is a realistic aim.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side are coming off a 2-1 home defeat by Valencia, and in truth, their recent performances have been less than impressive. The only problem is that Madrid have a strange hoodoo over this competition. And Arsenal are without a host of first-team stars, including their most dependable defender.

It’s all set up for a mouth-watering couple of clashes, starting with tonight’s dual. We’ll have all the updates from both camps, including insights from our superb reports at Emirates.

Then make sure you stay tuned for when the action gets underway at 8pm. Let’s get going!
