Arsenal XI vs Atletico Madrid – Predicted lineup and team news Arsenal seek to reach their first Champions League final since 2006 during their trip to Madrid. Mikel Arteta’s side have reached consecutive semi-finals for the first time in their history. They are currently unbeaten in 12 European matches, winning 10 and drawing 2.
That said, their scoring has slowed down significantly during the recent knockout rounds. The Gunners’ last four knockout games have produced an average of just 1. 25 goals.
Arteta wants his side to earn their place in the showpiece event. Defensive solidity has been the foundation of Arsenal’s success in the Champions League recently. They have conceded a mere five goals in twelve matches so far this season.
In the twenty-two games that Raya, Saliba, and Gabriel started together, they kept thirteen clean sheets. They concede only 0. 5 goals per game when that trio anchors the defensive unit.
