The Champions League is now the best chance of a trophy this season from both domestic cups and 13 points behind Liverpool in the title race. After taking third place in the 36-team league phase, they should be viewed among the favorites, but their potential path through the draw is difficult.

If Arsenal come past two legs past PSV, a showdown with Real or Atlético Madrid Mikel Aretetas is expecting exhausted squad. But don’t let ourselves be ahead of ourselves. The opponents of this evening may have wrapped themselves in the league and beaten behind the leaders Ajax in Arsenalesque fashion, but they sent Juventus in the playoffs to get here.

There are also some earlier that are taken into account between the two clubs. Areta has recorded four times in Europe with extremely mixed results-1-0, 0-2, 4-0 and 1-1. As early as 2007, the Dutch team Arsène Wengers Mob let off the Champions League in this phase and added a few stitches to the rich wall carpet of the continental problems of arsenal.

Can Areta and his players rewrite this story tonight in the round of Arsenal? Eindhoven is 450 miles away from Munich and the final feels further away – but every trip begins with a small step. The kick -off takes place at 8 p.m. GMT, 9 p.m. local time.
