Arsenal Women play Real Madrid in Champions League quarter-finals
Arsenal Women's team is preparing for a crucial Champions League quarter-final match against Real Madrid. The match takes place on Tuesday, March 18, at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano in Spain. Kick-off is set for 5:45 PM GMT. Under new manager Renee Slegers, Arsenal is aiming to win their second Champions League title. They topped their group, winning all five matches. In contrast, Real Madrid has struggled, finishing behind Chelsea in their group and has never made it to the semi-finals. Arsenal enters this match after a recent win against Everton in the Women's Super League. However, they are still recovering from a disappointing FA Cup loss to Liverpool. The Champions League now represents their best chance to claim silverware this season. Fans in the UK can watch the match live on TNT Sports 1 and discovery+. Coverage starts at 5:30 PM GMT. A subscription is available for £30.99 per month. Both teams are facing injury challenges. Real Madrid will be without midfielder Teresa Abelleira and defender Rocio Galvez. Arsenal's defender Lotte Wubben-Moy is also out, and goalkeeper Daphne van Domselaar missed the last game due to a concussion but may return. The predicted outcome leans in favor of Arsenal, who are expected to perform well after their strong group stage.
