Champions League: Quarterfinal tension Arsenal-Real, Bayern-Inter Milan

Arsenal-Real Madrid - the highlight match of the quarter-finals of this season's Champions League.

After nearly a month of hiatus, the 2024-25 Champions League will return with matches that are expected to be dramatic in the quarter-finals.

Arsenal will face defending champions Real Madrid - a match considered the highlight of the Champions League quarter-finals.

In terms of achievements, Arsenal cannot compare with record holder Real Madrid, but they have reason to be confident that they will "sow sorrow" for their opponents.

The Gunners from London have the advantage of playing at home at Emirates Stadium in the first leg of the quarter-finals, along with an impressive head-to-head record against the White Vultures since 2005.

Arsenal are unbeaten in their two Champions League ties against Real Madrid (round of 16 in 2005-06) - winning 1-0 at the Bernabeu and drawing 0-0 at Highbury, to eliminate the La Liga side 1-0 on aggregate.

Arsenal have also played Real Madrid twice in friendlies, beating the Spanish side 1-0 in the 2008 Emirates Cup and drawing 2-2 after 90 minutes in the 2019 ICC Cup in the US.

An impressive head-to-head record in the past gives the Gunners the right to hope for a good result in the first leg before having to travel to Real Madrid's Bernabeu for the second leg.

Welcoming Real Madrid, Mikel Arteta has his best squad at the moment with names like Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard, Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice.

On the other side of the front line, Real Madrid is not in the best of spirits after losing 1-2 to Valencia in La Liga.

In the away match at Emirates, Real will not have the service of Aurelien Tchouameni due to suspension. However, the White Vultures are still very formidable with names like Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr. and Jude Bellingham.

The match between Arsenal and Real Madrid will take place at 2am on April 9 (Vietnam time), promising to be very exciting with an open game.

At the same time as this match, at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich will host the tough opponent Inter Milan.

The Bavarian Tigers did not have their strongest squad when facing Inter because a series of key players in the team had to sit out the match.

Hiroki Ito, Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano, Kingsley Coman, Jamal Musiala and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer are among the names on Bayern's injury list.

The absence of many key players will cause Bayern to face many difficulties. However, this does not make coach Vincent Kompany too worried: "With the number of injured players at the moment, Bayern is of course in a difficult situation. However, the whole team is participating in the Champions League, so we can only move forward, not backward."

On the other side of the front line, Inter Milan also does not have the best squad due to injuries, including the absence of Dumfries.

In addition, before the match against Bayern, the blue-black team from Milan also did not have the best start when they only got a draw in the last two matches.
