Arsenal’s reward for seeing off AC Milan in the round of 16 is a quarterfinal tie against Russian side CSKA Moscow. The draw for the EL quarterfinals were made today (March 16, 2018), just after the Champions League quarterfinal draw was conducted. Arsenal’s hopes of playing CL football next season will probably require the Gunners to do what Man United did in 2016/17- win the Europa League to qualify. The Gunners are currently sixth in the table with 48 points, a whopping 12 points behind fourth place Liverpool.
