Bayern Munich vs Arsenal predictions

Bayern Munich have reached the Champions League semi-finals nine times over the last 16 seasons and they can see off the challenge of Arsenal to book another spot in the final four.

From a domestic perspective the season has been a disappointment for Bayern, who have relinquished the Bundesliga crown for the first time since 2011-12.

The Bavarians' title defence has come to an end with five rounds of fixtures left to play but there is the possibility of a glorious end to the season if Thomas Tuchel's side can came through three European trials.

They are well placed to take the first step after last Tuesday's 2-2 draw at the Emirates.

Bayern trailed after just 12 minutes in north London but they responded with calmness and determination and were ultimately disappointed to end up with honours even.

Arsenal had the last word with Leandro Trossard's 76th-minute strike but the final whistle was met with a fairly muted response from home fans, who must have feared that the balance of the tie had swung towards the opposition.

Bayern have vast experience at negotiating big Champions League ties and they tend to be stronger in the return legs.

On the last 18 occasions that Bayern have avoided defeat in a Champions League knockout round first leg, they have progressed 17 times.

The Allianz Arena no longer appears to be a fortress in the Bundesliga after Werder Bremen and Borussia Dortmund posted victories at the venue in 2024.

However, it remains a daunting venue on the European stage and Bayern are seeking to extend an unbeaten sequence of 14 home Champions League matches.

Arsenal need to deliver a performance laced with character and quality but they looked a long way short of their best on Sunday when losing 2-0 at home to Aston Villa in a key Premier League encounter.

The Gunners went into the Villa game knowing they were seven wins away from clinching a first Premier League title since 2004 but they failed to rise to the challenge and could have no real complaints over the outcome.

Mikel Arteta's side were picked off by a disciplined Villa side set up superbly by their former manager, Unai Emery.

The Gunners have conceded two goals in successive games for the first time since January and a continuation of their defensive struggles may signal the end of their Champions League journey.
