The round of last 16 in the Champions League continues on Wednesday night with Bayern Munich taking on Arsenal in the first leg of their encounter at Allianz Arena in Munich with Bayern Munich having home advantage first off.

Bayern Munich progressed through to the knock-out rounds following a second place finish in Group D three points behind group winners Atletico Madrid but although they lost twice (both away from home at Atletico Madrid and Rostov), the German champions continued their impressive home form in this competition, winning their matches on home turf against Rostov, PSV and Atletico Madrid.

Bayern have now won their last 15 matches on the trot at Allianz Arena at this level which is a remarkable achievement, and they’ll be looking to continue this run against Arsenal this evening. Striker and hit-man Lewandowski (15 goals) is the main threat up front for the German side.

Visitors Arsenal took all three points in the Premier League on Saturday as they cruised to a 2-0 home win over Hull City, but recent defeats to Watford and Chelsea will have Arsene Wenger’s men on notice as they look to hold Bayern Munich in this evening’s Champions League clash.

Arsenal were impressive during the group stages as they topped Group A ahead of French champions PSG, along with securing home wins against Basel and a 6-0 demolition of Ludogorets while earning a draw with PSG 2-2.

However, Arsenal aren’t always a reliable banker away from home at this level, and they will still be haunted by their 5-1 mauling at the hands of tonight’s opponents Bayern Munich back in November 2015 I daresay!
