In fact, they&#8217;re arguably the biggest club never to lift the trophy. Contrast that to Real Madrid, who are the competition&#8217;s most successful club with 15 titles and 18 total finals, and you can see the task that awaited the North London side.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Arsenal take a commanding lead to the Spanish capital after two Rice free-kicks and a Mikel Merino strike secured a 3-0 first-leg victory at the Emirates. That&#8217;ll be a memorable night whatever happens, but now it&#8217;s time to make it write it into Arsenal folklore.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal haven&#8217;t lost in any competition since going down 1-0 at home to West Ham in February. Meanwhile, they&#8217;ve not lost by three or more goals since way back in May 2023, when Brighton beat them 3-0 at the Emirates. What&#8217;s more, Arsenal&#8217;s last visit to the Bernabeu saw Arsenal win 1-0 thanks to a Thierry Henry strike back in February 2006 en route to their only Champions League final to date.<\/p>\n<p>The omens are good and history awaits Arsenal in Madrid.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal will be looking to finish the job and book their place in the Champions League semi-finals when they travel to Real Madrid on Wednesday at 8pm (UK time).
