THE BATTLE AT HIGHBURY!

Arsenal are called to stepup to the plate and face this gruesome enemy (Real Madrid) in tomorrow's Champion's league tie at highbury.Its a battle to the death almost litrally for both sides.Arsenal won the first leg 1-0 away at the Bernabeu,the feat was the first of its kind amongst british clubs.No british club had defeated Real Madrid in Spain before but Arsenal broke that record with some superb display of how football should be played.Madrid were fortunate not to have lost by more than one as Arsenal missed several mouthwatering goalscoring chances.Arsene Wenger believes Arsenal are more than halfway to securing a place in the Champions League quarter-finals ahead of their second leg with Real Madrid.Arsenal take a 1-0 advantage into Wednesday's game at Highbury and Wenger said: "We want to finish off the job."The game seems a David versus Goliath battle but Arsenal are more than capable of doing "a david" and defeat Real Madrid,expect the compact pitch to be a key factor in the game.I predict either a firy goaless draw or atleast a 2-1 scoreline,for who this favours....well we'll all have to wait and see!
