Hello and welcome to live coverage of Arsenal v Real Madrid at the Emirates. It’s the first leg of a mouthmoistening quarter-final between the best team never to win the European Cup (probably) and the team that has won it the most (definitely).
That imbalance gives this game a slightly strange feel – part Clash of the Titans, part David vs Goliath. Madrid are strongish favourites to win the tie but Arsenal have more than enough ability to make life uncomfortable for them, particularly in front of a feral Emirates crowd tonight.
