Arsenal will face its biggest game ever under Mikel Arteta when PSG come to town.
It might be hard to envision a game bigger for Arsenal than its Champions League quarter-final clash against Real Madrid, but that's exactly what we've got.
With PSG coming to the Emirates for the Champions League semi-finals, this is no doubt the biggest game for the Gunners under Mikel Arteta's guidance.
We said that prior to the Real clash, and now the French side will present a tough challenge for Arteta's side, and it's one that has a lot riding on it.
The Champions League is the only competition the Gunners have left, with Liverpool winning the Premier League at the weekend, so this is all that stands between Arsenal and another trophyless season.
The stakes couldn't be higher, and that was the case against Madrid and the further the Gunners go in the competition, the bigger the excitement and magnititude of what is in front of them becomes.
The first leg at the Emirates is perhaps the perfect chance for lightning to strike twice for Arsenal with the Gunners beating PSG 2-0 in the league stage this season. Yes, PSG is a different beast now, but Arteta will surely take confidence from that.
Gunners now understand the gravity of situation vs. PSG
Given how the first leg against Madrid set up the Gunners for the second leg, fans are hoping that lightning can strike twice and they can head to Paris with a nice lead.
"It does and you sense it, you sense the energy, the enthusiasm that it's something unique," Arteta said via arsenal.com. "It's probably one of the biggest games that the Emirates have seen since we built it. We're full of energy, enthusiasm and can't wait to play the game tomorrow."
So Arteta knows how important this clash is, and we spoke at length prior to the Madrid tie, the last thing the Gunners want is to have to go chasing the game and win it in the second leg.
Luckily they didn't have to, but they did anyway.
The same game plan needs to be followed here. Yes, it's easier said than done, but the Gunners have the firepower to take a lead into the second leg.
It is a monumental game for Arsenal, and it's one it knows has massive implications not only for this season but potentially next as well.
