Bayern Munich vs Arsenal Analysis
Bayern Munich Preview
It is very much advantage to Bayern Munich at the halfway point in this last eight showdown. The Bavarian giants would have been delighted with their 2-2 draw in the first leg against Arsenal, and they were slightly unfortunate not to have held on to an important victory.
The Bayern schedule have shown their issues domestically this term, but they remain among the leading contenders in the European competition. Harry Kane moved to the top of the UCL player stats after netting at the Emirates, and he will be key once again in this return clash.
Kane’s record is staggering against Arsenal, as the England captain has now scored six away goals against the Gunners. The UCL team stats show that is the most of any away player in all competitions.
Bayern’s chances of progressing through to the next round are boosted based on the fact that they have progressed from six of their last eight after playing out an away draw in the first leg.
Arsenal Preview
It was a missed opportunity for Arsenal in the first leg against Bayern Munich, as they failed to make their home advantage count. Ultimately, they rescued the draw in the final 15 minutes when Leandro Trossard fired home following good work from Gabriel Jesus.
However, the Arsenal stats show that the club are now without a win in the first leg of their last eight knockout ties in the Champions League. Their latest victory was a 2-1 success over Barcelona in 2010-11.
Despite topping the UCL standings in the opening round, the Gunners have struggled on the road in the competition throughout this season.
Arsenal also have a very poor record in Germany, losing each of their last three. That includes 5-1 away defeats against Bayern Munich in November 2015 and February 2017. Their UCL injuries could also play a role this week, with Martin Odegaard set to miss out.
