The Gunners have one eye on the final of the Champions League, but first they have to pass a PSG side that is also impressive in the knockout rounds
Arsenal welcoming PSG at the Emirates Stadium while the two parties kick off the semi -final round of the Champions League with both parties who secure a ticket to Munich this time next month.
After an exciting 4-2 triumph against Leicester City in the Premier League last weekend, Arsenal makes a comeback to the Champions League. Arsenal seemed to sail to a simple victory, but to surrender two goals to the newly promoted team. The match was a nail biter until the last whistle in the 94th minute!
Despite the victory, Manager Mikel Arteta will encourage his team to demonstrate more murderer instinct in future competitions. The journey of Arsenal in the Champions League started with a heavily fought against Atalanta on foreign soil, thanks to the spectacular double penalty from David Raya.
The coming challenge is formidable when they prepare for the French psg champions. However, the Gunners have reasons to be optimistic. Since January they have kept an undefeated record on their home country with 12 wins and two draws.
Moreover, their track record against PSG is undefeated in European matches in their last four meetings with PSG. In fact, the Ligue 1 champions have played more matches against Arsenal without winning a victory (4) than any other opponent in European tournaments.
PSG has an impressive start of the 2024-25 season under the leadership of Luis Enrique. They have been conquered in five of their Six Ligue 1 matches and defeated Girona in the Champions League. Despite the fact that this season has an unbeaten run, PSG has struggled in recent road races against English teams in the Champions League and lost their last three. Moreover, they have only succeeded in keeping two clean sheets in their last seven competitive games.
