    Football: Atletico, Arsenal Bank On Set Pieces In Tactical Champions League Semifinal

    By IANS News April 28, 2026 • 20:58 PM View: 600
    UEFA Champions League: Atletico Madrid face Arsenal at the Metropolitano Stadium on Wednesday in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal, in a rematch of the league phase meeting that Arsenal won 4-0 in London in October.

    Since then, Arsenal's imperious early-season form has dipped, with Mikel Arteta's side now locked in a tight Premier League title race with Manchester City.

    Injuries have also taken a toll. Mikel Merino is a long-term absentee and is doubtful for the World Cup, Jurrien Timber is sidelined with a pelvic problem, and Kai Havertz picked up a groin injury against Newcastle United last weekend. Eberechi Eze and Martin Zubimendi were also forced off in that game, with Eze a doubt for Wednesday.
