The Gunners had secured a commanding 3-0 lead in the first leg and were set to face Brentford in the Premier League before the return match. However, despite the high spirits, Arsenal's domestic form faltered, with a 1-1 draw against Brentford.
Many Arsenal supporters, as well as critics, expressed concerns about the overconfidence, fearing that the celebratory shirts could jinx their European aspirations. Manager Mikel Arteta denied that focus had shifted from the Premier League to the Real Madrid clash, despite rotating key players like Bukayo Saka and Martin Ødegaard.
