Arsenal have hopes of reaching the UEFA Champions League semi-finals for the first time since the 2008/09 campaign, where they were beaten by Manchester United. Holding on to their 3-0 advantage will be quite the task, however, with Real Madrid hoping to spoil their party and we expect quite the atmosphere at the Bernabeu on Wednesday evening.
Carlo Ancelotti's side saw Kylian Mbappe sent off against Alaves in their 1-0 win at the weekend after a horror challenge, but will still have the French forward available for selection in midweek. Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo all provide further options in attack, with the contest showing all the early makings of a European classic.

Watch from anywhere with a VPN
If youre out of your home country when Real Madrid vs Arsenal kicks off, your usual streaming services won't work due to geo-restrictions.
Thankfully, there is a good option that doesnt involve resorting to one of those dodgy feeds on Reddit. All you need is a VPN (Virtual Private Network), which sets your IP address to make it look like your device is in another country.
Assuming it complies with your broadcasters T&Cs, you can use a VPN to create a private connection, access your usual streaming services from anywhere in the world, and put your feet up with the game.
