Arsenal and Real Madrid will each have one player suspended for the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final clash next month.

The Gunners will be without Raheem Sterling, who was booked in the last minutes of their 2-2 draw with PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday night.

Sterling, who provided two assists in the game, was walking a disciplinary tightrope ahead of the game along with Gabriel Martinelli and Jurrien Timber.


Martinelli and Timber escaped any booking, as they started the game from the bench and played only few minutes at the Emirates.

Real will have Aurelien Tchouameni unavailable for the first leg against Arsenal in North London.

Tchouameni was also shown a yellow card in their last-16 second leg game at Atletico Madrid.

Both teams last met each other in 2006, with Arsenal winning 1-0 on aggregate, thanks to a spectacular strike from Thierry Henry.
