Arsenal are in the Spanish capital on Wednesday evening for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final against Atletico Madrid.
The Gunners were beaten by eventual champions PSG at this stage last year and will be desperate to go one better by reaching next month’s final in Budapest.
Though they’ve not been totally convincing, Mikel Arteta’s side have navigated a kind path to the semi-finals but will need to raise their levels at the Metropolitano Stadium.
Atletico showed their quality by downing Barcelona in a topsy-turvy all-Spanish quarter-final and served a reminder of how tough they are to beat in big games.
The hosts remain a gritty side under Diego Simeone but it is their attacking firepower, in particular, the forward duo Julián Álvarez and Antoine Griezmann, that Arsenal should fear most.
