Real Madrid v Arsenal Preview
Real Madrid’s Form
Real had a sensational 23/24 which culminated in a La Liga and Champions League double. In the summer they then finally completed the long-anticipated signing of Kylian Mbappé on a free transfer from PSG which naturally kept expectation levels high at the club. This season they’ve already won the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Intercontinental Cup but in La Liga trail Barcelona by 4 points with 7 games remaining.
Ahead of the first leg of the tie they were well fancied in many quarters to overcome Arsenal over two legs and make another Champions League semi-final. However, a second-half flurry of goals from their opponents in the first leg meant they fell to a 3-0 defeat leaving their qualifying hopes in serious jeopardy after taking their recent league form into Europe.
Arsenal’s Form
Ahead of the 24/25 season, there seemed to be a growing pressure on Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side to land a “major” trophy following finishing the 23/24 season trophyless for the fourth successive time. The improvements under Arteta have been considerable but at some point, they need to land another trophy and following another draw in the Premier League at the weekend, this competition is likely their only chance left of a major trophy this season.
While Arsenal put on an exceptional display in the first leg of the tie the job remains only 50% complete. Though their starting side should still be strong coming into this game they could have up to 8/9 players missing out for varying reasons which means their bench could be inexperienced on Wednesday which may put them under pressure if Real score an early goal or two
Arsenal have a strong record against Real Madrid which will put them in good spirits ahead of the second leg and their hopes of reaching the semi-final stage.
