Champions League: Arsenal v Bayern Munich Betting Preview

Champions League: Arsenal v Bayern Munich Betting Preview

Mission impossible for Arsenal?

Arsenal welcome Bayern Munich to North London tonight needing a miracle if they have any chance of overcoming the mammoth 5-1 deficit from the first leg.

The Gunners have been knocked out at this stage of the Champions League in each of their last six attempts and look all but certain to do the same again this year.

Arsene Wenger's men are solid at home in the Champions League however, losing just once (a 2-0 defeat to Barcelona early last year) in six at the Emirates. They've also only failed to score once in their last 12 Champions League home ties.

Another boost for the Premier League outfit is that Bayern Munich's away form in the competition isn't anything to shout about. The Bavarians have won just three of their last nine on their travels, losing four and drawing two.

The earliest of those four defeats was Bayern Munich's last visit to the Emirates where they were beaten 2-0.

While Arsenal are nearly certain to be knocked out of the competition tonight, the 11/4 on offer for them to just win the tie is worth considering. Double chance with the draw is 17/20.

Three of the last four meetings between Arsenal and Bayern Munich have ended with both teams scoring (the last two finished 5-1 to Bayern).

Considering Arsenal's goal scoring form at home and that four of Bayern's last six away Champions League games have seen both teams on the scoresheet, we really like the look of both teams scoring and over 2.5 match goals in this one at 13/20 with William Hill.

In the goal scorer markets, look know further than Robert Lewandowski, undoubtedly one of the best strikers on the planet right now. The Polish international has bagged a phenomenal 19 goals in his 20 starts this season, including 6 in 7 in this competition. Lewandowski is 8/13 to score anytime for Bayern Munich tonight.

Recommended bets:

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals - 13/20, William Hill

Robert Lewandowski to score any time - 8/13, BetVictor
