The second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final between Arsenal and Atletico Madrid takes place tonight at the Emirates Stadium.

Following a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Madrid, both teams enter this fixture with everything to play for as they look to secure a place in the final.

The first leg at the Estadio Metropolitano ended in a 1-1 draw, with both goals coming from the penalty spot. Viktor Gyokeres gave Arsenal the lead before Julian Alvarez equalized for the home side.

Arsenal thought they had a chance to win the game late when they were awarded a second penalty, but the decision was overturned following a VAR review.
