Arsenal welcome Bayern Munich to the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday for a clash between the only two teams with perfect records in the Champions League.
Mikel Arteta’s side have been defensively flawless in Europe. In fact, they are the only team yet to concede a goal in the competition this season. The Gunners will look to maintain that defensive wall against a potent Bayern attack led by Harry Kane.
Although injuries have depleted the squad, the morale-boosting 4-1 win over Tottenham has shown they have the depth to compete. A victory here would extend their winning run in European group games to a record-breaking nine matches.
Arsenal team news
Mikel Arteta is expected to name an unchanged lineup from the side that beat Tottenham, largely due to injury constraints. Gabriel Magalhães remains out with a hamstring injury, meaning Piero Hincapié will continue alongside William Saliba in defence. Further forward, Viktor Gyökeres and Martin Ødegaard are major doubts and unlikely to start.
Therefore, Mikel Merino may be deployed in an advanced role, with Leandro Trossard operating as a false nine. Eberechi Eze will provide creativity from midfield, while Declan Rice anchors the engine room, knowing a booking would rule him out of the next match.
