Arsenal vs Atletico Madrid | Europa League semi-final, first leg | Thursday, 8:05pm BST | Emirates Stadium
Arsenal head into their Europa League semi-final against Atletico Madrid knowing it will be Arsene Wenger's last chance of winning a European trophy with the north London club.
Wenger shocked the footballing world on Friday by announcing his decision to leave Arsenal at the end of the current season, despite having another year left to run on his contract.
The news may well galvanise the Gunners ahead of a tough tie against Atletico, but Diego Simeone's side will be in no mood to let Wenger bow out on a high as the Spanish side seek European redemption after two Champions League final defeats against rivals Real in the last four seasons.

Arsenal and Atletico have never played a competitive match in Europe together. The Gunners beat Atletico 2-1 in the Emirates Cup pre-season tournameny back in 2009.
Team news
Wenger faces a tough call on whether to stick with his regular cup goalkeeper David Ospina, or start No.1 Petr Cech.
Mohamed Elneny is out after suffering a worrying ankle injury against West Ham, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan is also unavailable. Alex Iwobi could lose out to Danny Welbeck after a poor showing against the Hammers.
Arsenal have received a boost with former Chelsea striker Diego Costa all but ruled out for Atletico. Simeone played a three-man defence against Real Betis on Sunday, and has hinted that he could be tempted to do so again on Thursday night.
