Bayern v Arsenal Preview

Bayern’s Form

Bayern before the start of this season had dominated domestically winning 11 consecutive Bundesliga titles. However, they’ve been undone by a fairytale story this season with Bayer Leverkusen led by Xabi Alonso landing their first league title. Thus the Champions League is their sole chance of silverware left and to reach this stage of the Champions League they topped their Group with 16 points from their Group games with Copenhagen, Galatasaray and Man United. They then overturned a 1-0 first-leg deficit against Lazio to win 3-1.

In their Quarter Final first leg, they played out a 2-2 draw in the Emirates and could arguably be considered unlucky not to have won with their fewer shots (8) accumulating a higher XG 1.92 compared to Arsenal’s 13 shots having one of 1.00. It suggests that Bayern were able to create better chances with their limited possession of 41%

Bayern at the weekend had a 2-0 win over Koln.

Arsenal’s Form 

Arsenal under Mikel Arteta is a fine example of a club sticking by a manager through a tough patch and bearing the fruits of it and now they’re in contention in the league and Champions League. Their defeat against Villa means they’re second and 2 points behind Man City with 6 games left. In the Champions League, they reached this stage by topping their Group with 13 points coming ahead of PSV, Lens and Sevilla. They then overcame a 1-0 first-leg deficit in the Round of 16 to win 4-2 on penalties against Porto.

While a 2-2 first-leg draw against Bayern at the Emirates is far from a disastrous result had Saka not allegedly dived when through on goal in the first leg they could be heading into this tie with a lead. Alas, the task is simple, win Wednesday and they’re into the Champions League Semi-Final.

Arsenal have never won the Champions League with their best performance being runners-up in 2006 against Barcelona.

Key Players To Watch

Harry Kane – Bayern Munich

Since signing from Tottenham last summer Kane has been red-hot in front of goal with 39 goals and 12 assists from 39 matches in all competitions. Kane moved to Bayern in search of trophies and this competition is his last chance of the season to do so. However, following his first leg goal, I make him good value to score again.

Bukayo Saka – Arsenal

World Class Saka (22) has been going from strength to strength in these last two seasons and is now integral to everything good about Arsenal. From 41 matches in all competitions this season he has scored 18 goals and provided 13 assists. However, while he scored in the first leg he faced criticism for diving for a penalty not given too.

Bayern v Arsenal Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Bayern 1-1 Arsenal

The pressure is on Bayern to perform, even if they avoided defeat away from home with the Bundesliga now gone, the Champions League is all that is left to save their season.

Arsenal lost at the weekend and so while they remain in contention on both fronts this season, a loss in this game could make another trophyless season even more likely.

Another tie firmly in the balance, but I think Bayern will have enough to come through at home.

Best Bet: Bayern @ 13/10
