Paris Saint-Germain v. Arsenal preview
If Arsenal is to squeeze into Paris Saint-Germain and take a place in the Champions League final, it must start from the age group.
PSG's 1-0 victory at Emirates last week put Luis Enrique's side into a driving seat, which would require the Gunners to win the Prince in the Prince and clash with Inter or Barcelona.
They will certainly be much better than they would have lost to Bournemouth on the weekend, which has led them to drag them back to the Champions League scrap next season.
Boss Mikel Arteta is not impressed by his players' efforts to Cherries, but challenges them to use it as fuel for PSG.
“What we create now is the anger, anger, frustration and bad feeling in our belly,” Arteta said. “So make sure we use it for Wednesday's performance in Paris, winning the game and reaching the finals.”
A former Arsenal legend believes he can do that by copying their wins in Real Madrid's victory in the quarter-finals. Patrick Vieira said: “Honestly, I am convinced they can come back.
“I'm 100% sure a group of players and managers know they can come back without a doubt. They'll have to play the perfect game at home. They've done it before, and they have the qualities of players who can do it.”
If there is a reason to be optimistic about Arsenal, it is that PSG itself is not a glittering form.
Emirates’ victory was their only win in the last four games – despite a close win against Strasbourg over the weekend.

Pris Saint-Germain V Arsenal's prediction
If PSG home games against the British opposition were to be done this season before, Arsenal could be on Test night.
Luis Enrique has put his team in an offensive football style, which is hard to stop when momentum.
If PSG is on the game, we will not see any results other than home wins and positions in the PSG finals.
Arsenal’s biggest hope is to score early and cause panic elements in the family rankings, which may cause them to tilt forward and leave room behind for people like Bukayo Saka.
However, it's still a long shot and we can't see the PSG.
Prediction: PSG 3-1 Arsenal
