Arsenal host Atlético Madrid in Champions League showdown

Arsenal host Atlético Madrid in Champions League showdown

Arsenal continue their UEFA Champions League campaign this week, hosting Spanish giants Atlético Madrid at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, October 21, with an 8 pm BST kick-off.

The Gunners enter the fixture in red-hot form, having secured victories in both of their opening League Phase matches against Athletic Bilbao and Olympiacos, leaving them unbeaten on home turf this season. The clash marks a significant test for Mikel Arteta’s side as they aim for a statement win over Diego Simeone’s notoriously resilient team.

Atlético Madrid, meanwhile, have had a mixed start to their European campaign, registering a win against Eintracht Frankfurt but suffering a defeat to Liverpool.

This high-stakes match is only the second time Arsenal and Atlético have met at the Emirates, following their 1-1 draw in the 2017/18 Europa League semi-final.

For fans in the UK, the game will be streamed live on Amazon’s Prime Video, with coverage starting at 6:30 pm. Non-subscribers can access the match for free via a 30-day trial subscription.
