Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has picked a lively attack against Real Madrid in the Champions League tonight.
The Gunners take on Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final and ahead of the game, Arteta has named the starting XI.
There are no surprises in the defence and the same can be said in midfield. In attack, Bukayo Saka starts on the right wing with Mikel Merino upfront.
Leandro Trossard scored in the 1-1 draw at Everton last weekend, but the manager has gone with the electric pace of Gabriel Martinelli on the left.
Arsenal are huge underdogs for the encounter and they need to turn up with a strong defensive performance to secure a positive result from the first leg.
A victory would be a good result but a draw won't be bad either. A heavy loss on the other hand could put Madrid in pole position for the last four of the competition once again.
