Arsenal vs Real Madrid Form
With both sides carrying strong ambitions and brimming with talent, this encounter promises to be an intense battle under the floodlights in the northeast.
Arsenal Form
For Arsenal, the road to the last eight has been nothing short of emphatic. A 7-1 demolition of PSV Eindhoven in the first leg of the round of 16 sent shockwaves across Europe, as the Gunners announced their return to elite continental action with swagger.
But recent domestic stumbles—like the 1-1 draw against Everton—have left their Premier League title hopes on life support, placing added pressure on their Champions League journey.

| 12 Mar 2025 | Arsenal vs PSV | D | 2 – 2 | Champions League |
| 08 Mar 2025 | Manchester United vs Arsenal | D | 1 – 1 | Premier League |
Real Madrid Form
Real Madrid, on the other hand, remain the seasoned warlords of Europe. Despite a nervy last-16 tie against Atletico Madrid, which went down to penalties, Carlo Ancelotti’s men once again found a way, as they so often do in this competition.
Madrid’s record at the quarter-final stage is intimidating—winning 12 straight ties since 2004—and Arsenal will need to channel every ounce of their underdog spirit to break that pattern.
