Arsenal will rotate the squad |
Arsenal just crushed Real Madrid 3-0 in an unexpected scenario in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. After a 0-0 draw in the first half, the Gunners took the lead thanks to a pair of free kicks from Declan Rice. Merino scored late in the match to give Arsenal a huge advantage ahead of the second leg.
Despite leading by 3 goals, Arsenal cannot afford to be complacent. Real Madrid have won the European Cup 15 times, and many of those titles have come from incredible comebacks. Currently, Arsenal have almost no chance of winning the Premier League, as they are 11 points behind leaders Liverpool. With 7 rounds left, this is an extremely difficult gap to fill, especially when Liverpool only competes in one arena.
In that context, fans believe that Arsenal will save their strength against Brentford. Although they are not champions, the Gunners are not afraid of falling out of the top 5. Playing cautiously against Brentford will help them focus all their strength on the away trip to Bernabeu in the middle of next week. With the door to the semi-finals wide open, coach Mikel Arteta and his team clearly do not want any mistakes to happen.
According to the Opta supercomputer, Arsenal have a 56.4% chance of winning, while Brentford have just a 20.7% chance of getting all three points, and a 22.9% chance of a draw. These numbers reflect Arsenal's superiority, but do not rule out the possibility of an unexpected scenario, especially given Brentford's good form in recent London derbies.
