On Tuesday, April 8, we are set for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals between Arsenal and Real Madrid. The game hasn't even started yet, and one of the Gunners has already made history.

Details: According to Opta, Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly has become the second youngest English footballer to appear in a Champions League quarter-final at 18 years and 194 days. Notably, he trails only Jude Bellingham, who was 17 years and 281 days when he played in the quarter-finals.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid is on an eight-match unbeaten streak in the first legs of knockout stages. If they manage to avoid defeat against Arsenal today, it will set a new club record.

Reminder: Arsenal's head coach is confident that his team can win the home match and believes that the home ground advantage will play in their favor.
