Arsenal 4-0 Atletico Madrid (UCL)

Match Details.

Arsenal have now won each of their last seven games against Spanish teams, beating five different opponents in this run (Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid x2, Sevilla x2, Girona and Athletic Club). This is the longest winning run by a team against Spanish opposition in UEFA Champions League history.

Atlético Madrid have still never won away to an English side in the group or league phase of the UEFA Champions League, now failing in all six such attempts (D2 L4). Their latest setback came with a 4–0 defeat to Arsenal in London — their second loss by that scoreline on English soil after a 4–0 defeat to Chelsea in October 2009.

Highlights.

MOTM: Victor Gyokere.

Atlético Madrid have only won one of their last ten matches against English sides in European competition (D2 L7), with that lone victory coming against Manchester United in the second leg of a last 16 tie in the UEFA Champions League in March 2022.

Since the start of last season, the two players with the highest duel success rate (minimum 50 contested) in the UEFA Champions League remain Arsenal duo Gabriel Magalhães (70.2%) and Myles Lewis-Skelly (69.4%).

Arsenal remain one of only two sides – along with Internazionale – yet to concede a goal in the UEFA Champions League this season. The Gunners still rank first for xG against (0.82) in the competition, and they have now restricted their opponents to under one xG in eight of their last 11 league-phase matches since the start of last season (including just 0.4 v Atlético Madrid in their latest 4–0 victory).
