Atlético de Madrid - Arsenal Football Club (UEFA Champions League. Semifinals. First Leg)

The Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium will host the first leg of this exciting semi-final knock-out round on Wednesday 29 April, which will see Atlético de Madrid against the English side managed by Mikel Arteta.

Simeone’s team is back in the top four teams in Europe, following an absence of nine seasons, having earned its place in the semi-finals after beating FC Barcelona. Arsenal reached the semi-finals after beating Sporting Clube de Portugal in the quarter-finals.

The only continental match between the two teams was in the UEFA Europa League back in the 2017–18 season, when the Madrid side beat the team from London in the semi-finals. 

PSG and Bayern Munich will face each other in the other semi-final, whereby the winner will go through to the final, which will be held at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest (Hungary) on Saturday 30 May.
