A thrilling 2025 Champions League season awaits Arsenal. They then enter the path to glory after a stellar group stage but it won’t be easy. So, time to look at the route that could take Arsenal to the Champions League final, where they could potentially face some of the hardest teams in Europe.
Round of 16: PSV – A Battle of Titans
Arsenal is to face PSV Eindhoven, the first test for the Londoners in the knockout rounds. It won’t be easy, as PSV is a team that plays attacking football. This dangerous opponent will need to be beaten, and Arsenal will have to keep their cool and form to take down such a good side. A win here sends such a good vibe of what’s going to be an incredible journey.
Quarter-finals: Atletico Madrid or Real Madrid – The Ultimate Test
But if Arsenal beat PSV, they will likely bear the brunt of one of Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid in the quarters. It also helps that Atletico are under the leadership of the footballing genius Diego Simeone, who’s always a tough nut to crack for visiting teams, and Real Madrid being the serial winners of the trophy, one of the most difficult in European club football to win. To reach the semis Arsenal will have to show resilience and dig deep.
Semi-finals – Who Will Arsenal Face?
With a fluctuation of potential opponents that come in the shape of Liverpool, Paris Saint-Germain, Club Brugge, or even an unexpected surprise like Aston Villa, their semi finals will bring yet another level of intensity. But no giant offers the same style of play, and Arsenal will have to adapt and outsmart whoever they turn up against. Arsenal’s attacking force is more than adequate to serve up a hurdle unlike the high pressing game of liverpool or the dexterity of attacking flair from PSG.
