Los Blancos have travelled to North London for UCL clash against the Gunners.
Despite Kylian Mbappe’s arrival, Carlo Ancelotti’s team hasn’t exactly been dominant this season, but these kinds of games usually see their best performance.
Real Madrid have endured a decent season and managed to cruise past Atletico Madrid in the round of 16 via penalty after an intense two-legged game.
They will now face another top side who are riding high on form, but their recent 1-1 draw with Everton will keep them humble when they welcome the Spanish club in the first leg of the Champions League.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid come into this game on the back of a 2-1 defeat against Valencia and will have to make amends if they are to prevail against the Gunners, as it is going to be a nail-biting encounter.
Every Madrid player will be eager to make a difference with players like Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr. Rodrygo hoping to lead their team to victory over Arsenal tonight.
Another big name, Kylian Mbappe, who has been in excellent form this season, will look to add more goals to his tally as he is currently the top scorer of Madrid with 33 goals this term, which is surprising after his slow start to his Madrid career.
Will Kylian Mbappe play tonight?
Mbappe is fit and has also travelled with the squad and there’s no debate that Kylian Mbappe should start as the centre-forward. Mbappe will be ready to influence the game with his attacking prowess tonight.
The former Paris Saint-Germain star has seven goals in the competition this season. He has already shown that he is their main goalscorer this campaign and once again Madrid will rely on him to find the back of the net.
However, they also have Bellingham and Vinicius, but Mbappe has often remained one of their biggest threat in attack and hopefully, he will attempt to aid the club to a win tonight.
