Real Madrid welcome Arsenal to the Bernabeu tonight seeking to complete La Remontada.
The European champions trail 3-0 on aggregate following an emphatic first-leg defeat in North London and must produce one of the Champions League’s great comebacks to reach the semi-finals.
Just four times previously has a side trailed by three goals following the first leg of a Champions League tie and progressed.
Arsenal are within touching distance of a first semi-final appearance since 2009, though will be taking nothing for granted at one of football’s most daunting venues.
Eduardo Camavinga is ruled out of the return following his late dismissal at the Emirates. The French midfielder – who scored the winner against Alaves in La Liga at the weekend – picked up a second booking for delaying the restart.
Camavinga’s absence is combatted by the return of Aurelien Tchouameni, who missed the first leg through suspension. Kylian Mbappe is free to feature despite his red card in La Liga at the weekend.
Carlo Ancelotti remains without several senior names through injury, including ACL victims Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao. Ferdland Mendy is also a major doubt.
Real Madrid XI: Courtois; Valverde, Asencio, Rudiger, Alaba; Modric, Tchouameni, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappe, Vinicius Jr.
Real Madrid host Arsenal in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on Wednesday 16th April 2025. Kick-off is 20:00 BST.
In the UK, tonight’s match is being shown live on TNT Sports 1.
