Following on from my brief look at Liverpool and Chelsea in the Champions League I'm taking a little look at the Arsenal clash at Real Madrid tonight.
Much depends on Thierry Henry tonight and a performance from the Frenchman that we all know he is capable of could and probably would mean a victory for Arsenal in Spain.
It is also rumoured that Dennis Bergkamp is driving to Spain. If he has and he plays you can expect at least one piece of magic from the Arsenal legend and if he hasn't or has and doesn't play expect it when Real travel to London for the second leg.
David Beckham has said ahead of tonight's match "If this team plays to its full potential we can be devastating. If we do that, hopefully we'll beat Arsenal."
Arsenal and Real are in the same boat this season - you just don't know who is going to turn up and that will determine who wins tonight. I hope it's Arsenal only because they are an English team and I'd love to see three teams in the semi finals.
I'm having a cheeky fiver on Arsenal tonight and I've got 11/2 so I hope I see the Arsenal I know can turn up.
