Arsenal host Atletico Madrid in a monumental Champions League semi-final second leg at the Emirates this evening.
The tie is balanced after a tense first leg in Spain which ended 1-1 after penalties from Vikor Gyokeres and Julian Alvarez.
Mikel Arteta’s side will hope that a home crowd can spur them to victory in the second leg as they bid to reach their first Champions League final since 2006.
The winner will face either Bayern Munich or PSG in the final in Budapest later this month.
