Bayern Munich will face Arsenal in one of the most vital games this season as the two sides clash in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final on German soil.
After earning a 2-2 draw in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium, it’s fair to say that Premier League side Arsenal have a slightly better advantage in terms of mentality ahead of the anticipated game.

Both sides have, more or less, ended their leagues’ campaign early, with Arsenal suffering a critical Premier League defeat to fall out of the standing’s first place. At the same time, Bayer Leverkusen took home the Bundesliga title in fashion for the first time.
To continue their quest this season, the UCL is the sole competition for both teams.
Bayern Munich vs Arsenal – Preview
It’s anyone’s game in Bavaria on Wednesday as Bayern Munich welcome Arsenal to the Allianz Arena.
Thomas Tuchel’s side failed to grab home their advantage after the late equalizer from the home side.
Bayern will take a 2-2 draw into the return fixture and face an Arsenal side that suffered its first Premier League defeat of 2024 at the weekend. Mikel Arteta’s title challengers were beaten 2-0 at home by Aston Villa on Sunday.
The German giants, meanwhile, were victorious as they beat FC Koln, but Bayer Leverkusen’s subsequent victory meant Bayern finally surrendered their Bundesliga crown. Their eggs have long been placed in the Champions League basket.
Arsenal are chasing a historic result on Wednesday – they’ve only ever won once at the Allianz – as they attempt to progress into the semi-finals of this competition for the first time since 2009.
