Written by: Brad Walker

Arsenal hope to move one step closer to European glory when they play host to Real Madrid on Tuesday evening. 

Our man Brad Walker has taken a closer look at the match-up ahead of kick-off.

Arsenal vs Real Madrid analysis - Neither side set the world alight in recent weeks

The Gunners' Premier League title ambitions remain a faint hope following a 1-1 draw at Everton on Saturday, even given Liverpool's defeat at Fulham the following day. Champions League glory remain their only hope to bring silverware back to the Emirates therefore, though serial winners Real Madrid stand in their way before those ambitions can be realised. 

Los Blancos are hunting a record 16th Champions League triumph this term and head to the London as the reigning champions. Still, Carlo Ancelotti's side are hardly in convincing form. 

Real Madrid have failed to win either of their last two in all competitions, having came up short in a 2-1 loss at home to struggling Valencia at the weekend.

Real Madrid draw no bet - 6/5

The Spanish giants have endured a turbulent campaign so far, but given their track record in this competition, how can you bet against them? Particularly given Arsenal's meagre form in a tournament they've not yet won. 

The Gunners have also stumbled this season, hence the 11 point gap between them and Premier League leaders Liverpool heading into the final stretch of the campaign. 

A return from injury for Bukayo Saka has significantly boosted Arsenal's prospects in attacking areas, evidenced by his goal versus Fulham last week, though it remains to be seen whether he's fit enough to trouble the Madrid backline to the extent this tie demands. 

All in all, backing Real Madrid on the draw no bet line at 6/5 looks an avenue worth pursuing. This covers Madrid's superior form in this competition but also means your stake will be returned should the match end in a draw.
