Declan Rice quickly thundered in two second half of free kicks before Mikel Merino brought the score to 3-0 from the North Londoners and sealed one of the biggest victories in the modern history of the club. Yet every football fan will know that Real Madrid, especially at the iconic Bernabeu, is capable of everything. And the record 15-way winners of the firepower of the competition means that a shortage of three goals can certainly be destroyed.
Both Carlo Ancelotti and Mikel Arteta will be confronted with a long list of absent due to injuries, while Los Blancos -midfielder Eduardo Camavinga will be out because of a red card he received in the first stage.
It only marks the second time that Arsenal and Real have confronted each other in the Bernabeu, in which Thierry Henry achieved a famous 1-0 Arsenal victory at total 19 years ago thanks to a characteristic solo run and finish.
