Atletico Madrid vs Arsenal

Atletico Madrid vs Arsenal game schedule will be held on Friday, May 4, 2018 at 02:05 pm. The second leg of the Europa League semi-final at Wanda Metropolitano will be the last hope for Arsene Wenger reaching the final of the European competition.

arsenal came to Spain with a 1-1 place at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners, Arsenal's nickname, can only win or play a draw with a score of 2-2 or more. If not, then the last season Wenger will culminate 'in vain'.

last weekend, Wenger failed to score when Arsenal downed Manchester United in his last game at Old Trafford. Now, the coach is threatened similar things: fallen in the ultimate party led the Gunners in Europe.

arsenal will perform without Pierre Emerick Aubameyang who in the first round play for Borussia Dortmund. In addition, the visitors also lost Mohamed Elneny. However, the London club was able to wear Henrikh Mkhitaryan, the attacking midfielder.

jack Wilshere, Alexandre Lacazette, Aaron Ramsey, Nacho Monreal, Laurent Koscielny and Shkodran Mustafi will be back in the first team after being saved last weekend. This is a guarantee of Arsenal will play attack since the first second for the sake of scoring a lot of goals.

"The only advantage of a 1-1 draw in the first leg is that we know what to do there, we have to really play to win the game," Wenger was quoted as saying by Arsenal's official website.

Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid entertain Arsenal with a limp on the right sector. Juanfran was injured, while Sime Vrsaljko was banned from playing. The most likely solution is to play Thomas Partey in that position.

coach Diego Simeone did not want to get stuck with the condition of his team that stayed need a 0-0 draw. Quoted Atletico Madrid official website, Simeone said, "The current position is still 50-50."

Atletico Madrid will rely on Antoine Griezmann as their gredor on the front lines. since Diego Costa has recovered, then Griezmann will be paired with him. It's more likely than Atletico to rely on Kevin Gameiro or Fernando Torres.

Like Arsenal, Atletico Madrid also save energy in the face of Alaves last weekend. thus, the Koke and Saul duet in midfield will again be used to turn off five Arsenal midfielders.

Seeing the habit of Atletico Madrid who played pragmatically in a vital game, Arsenal can dominate this second leg match. however, if the final score talks, Atlético seems to have qualified. That is, the dream of Arsene Wenger won the European title with Arsenal is most likely just a dream.
