The UEFA Champions League is down to its final eight teams, featuring marquee clashes like Real Madrid against Arsenal, as they both vie for advancement towards the May 31 finale in Munich’s Allianz Arena.
Real Madrid and Arsenal each bring their own storylines into this quarterfinal face-off. The reigning champions, Real Madrid, have had a challenging season but have regained form recently, knocking out top-tier opponents like Manchester City. Their defensive vulnerabilities remain a concern, as they’ve failed to secure a clean sheet in eight consecutive matches.
On the other hand, Arsenal’s path has been smoother, advancing through the rounds without significant hurdles. However, injuries to key players could pose serious challenges during this crucial match-up.
