Arsenal will look to make history as they face Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals at the Emirates Stadium, kick-off at 8pm.
The Gunners delivered a brilliant performance against Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, securing a 5-1 aggregate win and becoming the first team to defeat Los Blancos at home twice.
