PSV vs Arsenal – Champions League: Live score, team news and updates as the Gunners look to take the upper hand in the tie plus updates from Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid

I, for one, am sitting in this chair and smashing these keys with a beaming smile on my face.

And why is that, I hear you ask?

It’s the first night of the Champions League knockout stages; that’s why!

Everything feels like it’s back to normal in European football. No more brand new big table. No more playoffs. No more confusion.

It’s the round of 16, just like we are used to, so there will be no need for explainers tonight from me, thank goodness.

Arsenal take centre stage this evening as they travel to Eindhown in perhaps their biggest game of the season, to date.

All of the Gunners’ hopes of silverware hang on this competition; it’s pretty much this or bust now.

Elsewhere, we have a mouth-watering Madrid derby that is sure to bring fireworks – it always does.

So strap yourselves in this evening, guys; it’s going to be one hell of a ride.

Let’s get this party started.
