The 2026 UEFA Champions League semifinalists will be set on Wednesday, with the deciding second legs of the Bayern Munich-Real Madrid and Arsenal-Sporting CP quarterfinal ties taking place in Munich and London.
Bayern holds a 2-1 aggregate lead after last week's match in Madrid, while Arsenal scored a late winner in Lisbon and has a 1-0 advantage heading into tonight's match at the Emirates Stadium in London
"Our motivation is sky high so the starting point is good but we cannot overestimate it," Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer said. "We have experienced how Real can hit back but we are confident."
The Bayern Munich-Real Madrid winner will face Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinals, while the Arsenal-Sporting victor takes on Atletico Madrid beginning on April 28 or 29.

Bayern Munich 3, Real Madrid 1: Bayern holds on to the advantage at home in front of a full Allianz Arena and hit on the counter late to pull away.
Arsenal 2, Sporting CP 0: Arsenal shakes off its recent woes to advance to the semifinals with a straightforward win at home in the second leg.
