Real Madrid vs Arsenal Prediction
- Despite their UEFA Champions League legend, Real Madrid have their work cut out for them at the Bernabéu on Wednesday evening.
- A three-goal deficit stands in the defending champions' way of the semi-finals, and they will have to hope they can summon another miracle on home soil here.
- Arsenal head to Madrid with a more than comfortable advantage thanks to two sublime free-kicks from Declan Rice and a fabulous finish from Mikel Merino.
- The Gunners are hoping to reach the semi-finals of this competition for the first time since 2009, when they were dumped out by Manchester United.
- We're expecting Real to come flying out of the blocks at the Bernabéu, but an improved performance will more than likely not be enough to overturn the three-goal deficit.

Real Madrid vs Arsenal Bet Builder Tips
Our Bet Builder Tips for Real Madrid vs Arsenal feature Saka Over 0.5 Shots on Target, Over 2.5 Goals & Vinicius Junior to be Carded.
At the time of publishing it is a best price of 17/2 with Unibet.
- Saka is Arsenal’s key attacking outlet, averaging 2.98 shots per 90 minutes in all competitions. He has registered at least one shot on target in all 11 of his starts in the Champions League this season and depite playing just 25 minutes against Brentford, he managed two shots. With Arsenal likely to rely on counter-attacks, Saka’s pace and directness will be crucial and his fresh legs will help.
- Real Madrid need at least three goals to force extra time, which should lead to an open, attacking game. They have scored 2+ goals in five of their six Champions League home games this season. Arsenal, despite their defensive approach, have seen over 2.5 goals in each of their last seven Champions League matches, and their depleted defense may concede under pressure.
- Vinícius Jr. has a history of disciplinary issues, with four yellow cards in 11 Champions League appearances this season and eight in La Liga. His aggressive playing style and tendency to engage in confrontations, especially in high-stakes matches, make him a likely candidate for a booking. Arsenal’s compact defensive setup and potential for tactical fouls could frustrate him further
