    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Arsenal have struggled against Bayern in the past and have won only won one of their six away games against the Bundesliga side in the Champions League. However, Wenger remains confident of victory, pointing out that Bayern have suffered some poor results at home this season in the German top flight.

  • WHAT WENGER SAID

    He told beIN Sports: "Arsenal against Bayern Munich is a 50-50 game. Bayern have recently been vulnerable at home in the Bundesliga, they lost to Dortmund in a very important game so they will not be 100 per cent confident. I still think Arsenal might just glide through against Bayern.”
