Match preview: Real Madrid vs Arsenal
Real Madrid and Arsenal clash at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in a second-leg encounter of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, following Arsenal’s home victory of 3-0 in the first leg. The home advantage could play a significant role, given the stark difference in results between Arsenal’s home and away performances.
Team analysis: Real Madrid
This team is relatively unaffected by the home advantage, demonstrating similar performance levels at home and away. In their last 30 matches, they registered 9 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses as visitors, scoring 28 goals and conceding 17. At home, they found success with 10 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, netting 40 goals and conceding 23. Coming into this match, Real Madrid triumphed with a 1-0 victory against Deportivo Alavés. In their last 6 home matches in the UEFA Champions League, they have achieved 5 wins and 1 loss. While defensive solidity has not been their strong point, with goals conceded in 9 of their last 10 matches, their attack has been consistent, scoring in 7 of those games. A pattern emerges in their games, as 33 of the last 34 home matches have seen over 1.5 goals, while 27 of those had over 2.5 goals. In 13 Champions League games, they managed to overcome a deficit in 3 of the 7 matches in which they conceded the opening goal.
Real Madrid approaches this match following a narrow 1-0 victory. On their visit to Alavés, the only goal of the match came from Eduardo Camavinga. It is important to note that the Spanish club faced a significant defeat of 3-0 in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals and are challenged with the task of overturning that result in their favour. The home team typically employs a 4-3-3 tactical system, focusing on an attacking approach with numerous players in advanced positions. In this setup, Vinícius Júnior, Rodrygo, and Kylian Mbappé will be tasked with pressuring the opposition’s defence. However, coach Carlo Ancelotti will be unable to count on Eduardo Camavinga, who is suspended, as well as Ferland Mendy, Daniel Carvajal, and Éder Militão due to injuries.
Team analysis: Arsenal
This team, interestingly, has shown to be stronger away than at home. In their last 30 matches, they achieved 8 wins, 6 draws, and 1 loss as visitors, compared to 8 wins, 5 draws, and 2 losses at home. Their most recent match in the Premier League resulted in a 1-1 draw against Brentford at home. In their last five away games in the UEFA Champions League, Arsenal managed 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. Their attack has been consistent as they scored goals in 9 of their last 10 fixtures in this competition.
Arsenal enters this match following a 1-1 draw against Brentford. The only goal of the match was by Thomas Partey. It’s noteworthy that the London team secured an emphatic 3-0 victory against Real Madrid in the quarter-finals’ first leg. Typically, the visiting team employs a 4-3-3 formation, favouring quick transitions, particularly down the flanks. In this formation, the most advanced players will be Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, and Mikel Merino. Notably, when executing their offensive strategy, they often channel attacks through the left wing, leveraging the pace and depth provided by the full-back Myles Lewis-Skelly. Unfortunately, they will be without Riccardo Calafiori, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Magallanes, Gabriel Jesus, and Takehiro Tomiyasu, all sidelined due to injury.
