Real Madrid and Arsenal will come face to face for only the third time in history when they clash at the Emirates in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals.

Both Real Madrid and Arsenal are staring down the barrel of a second place finish in their respective leagues, making their Champions League clash all the more important. Los Blancos survived a penalty shootout against Atlético Madrid to punch their tickets to the quarterfinals while Arsenal demolished PSV Eindhoven 9–3 on aggregate.

Now, Arsenal and Real Madrid will face off with a trip to the Champions League semifinals on the line. A combined XI of the two clubs highlights just how many superstars, including Bukayo Saka and Kylian Mbappé, will be on the pitch across the two legs.

On paper, Real Madrid are the favorites to come out on top of the tie, but the Spanish giants have never defeated Arsenal. Fans across the globe will have to tune in to see if the Gunners can uphold their streak or if Los Blancos finally overcome the Premier League side.
