Arsenal host Real Madrid in a blockbuster Women’s Champions League clash, with the reigning champions desperate to get back to winning ways.
Renee Slegers’ side have had an inconsistent start to the season and suffered a damaging 3-2 defeat to Bayern Munich - giving up a two-goal lead in process - in their previous European match.
The title holders are 11th in the table, while Real Madrid meanwhile are fifth and within touching distance of automatic qualification to the quarter-finals.
But Arsenal have fond recent memories of playing the Spanish side, having overcome a two-goal deficit on home soil to win 3-0 in the quarter-finals last season; a repeat result would be a huge boost to their hopes of defending the title.
