Arsenal beat Sporting CP 1-0 on aggregate to reach the last four, while Atletico beat Barcelona 3-2, including a famous 2-0 win at the Camp Nou.
Fans have a different expectation of tonight’s match after Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich played a nine-goal thriller in the first semi-final.
The Gunners and Los Rojiblancos are different teams and may opt for the conservative style, which may produce fewer goals between them tonight.

Atletico Madrid vs Arsenal: Managers speak
Diego Simeone is leading Atletico Madrid to its fourth semi-final, having also played two finals, both of which he lost to city rivals Real Madrid in 2014 and 2017.
Simeone was asked if football feels indebted to deliver a Champions League trophy to Atletico Madrid before he leaves the club, but he doesn't believe it's that way.
“I think we’re all human, and you just have to ask everyone, it’s clear that, as people, everyone has a different way of thinking,” he said as quoted by Into the Calderon.
“But I believe we don’t owe anything to anyone, that things are earned and achieved, and for that you have to work and go after them, and that, obviously, Lady Luck has to be on your side too.”
