Arsenal vs Bayern Munich

Arsenal and Bayern Munich will put their 100% league phase records on the line when they host Bayern Munich on match-day five of the UEFA Champions League.

Both teams are looking almost unstoppable at the moment and will head into this clash full of confidence. They have shown plenty of attacking quality lately and look set to produce goals here.

Arsenal News

It has been an impressive league phase campaign for Arsenal so far, having won all four of their matches. Their last outing was a 3-0 victory at Slavia Prague, with Mikel Merino netting a brace.

Arsenal's overall form has also been solid lately as they are currently on a 15-match winning run across all competitions. They have also won their last six home matches, including a 4-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in a Premier League fixture last weekend.

The Gunners have no problems going forward and have scored first in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, Mikel Arteta's team have conceded in their last two fixtures, both of which have produced over 2.5 goals.

Bayern Munich News

Bayern Munich also boast a 100% record in the league phase and are currently top of the table on goal difference. They claimed a 2-1 victory at holders PSG in their previous fixture, thanks to Luis Diaz’s first-half brace.

It has been an impressive overall campaign for Bayern Munich, who are unbeaten across all competitions so far. Vincent Kompany's team will travel to the Emirates off the back of a 6-2 home victory over Freiburg in a Bundesliga clash last Saturday.

Like the hosts, Bayern Munich often look sharp going forward, scoring in every match across all competitions this season. However, they are without a clean sheet in their last three matches, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Bayern Munich have eight wins and four draws, while Arsenal have been victorious four times in the last 16 matches. Both teams met in the quarter-finals in 2024, with the Germans holding out for a 2-2 away draw before claiming a 1-0 home win in the second leg.

Verdict

Arsenal v Bayern Munich

Arsenal and Bayern Munich are among the leading scorers in the Champions League and will be keen to show their attacking quality. Both teams were on target in the last meeting at the Emirates, and a repeat is expected here.

Bayern Munich's last three matches have produced over 2.5 goals, which is likely to be the outcome on Wednesday. Arsenal have scored first in nine of their last 10 matches, and that trend is expected to continue here.
