Arsenal vs Bayern Munich Preview
Recent results
In the Champions League, these two have been nothing short of sensational. Bayern are four wins from four, with a huge 2-1 victory at Paris Saint-Germain recorded last time out, as well as 14 goals scored and only three conceded overall.
As for Arsenal, Mikel Arteta’s men also boast a record of four victories in four matches, previously beating Atletico Madrid 4-0 at the Emirates. The Gunners have scored 11 goals and are yet to concede in Europe this season.
Domestically, both teams are also shining bright. Vincent Kompany’s Bayern are top of the Bundesliga with 10 wins from 11 matches, most recently thrashing Freiburg 6-2 at the Allianz Arena.
And Arsenal are leading the way in the Premier League with nine wins from 12 matches, with last Sunday’s 4-1 win over fierce rivals Tottenham moving them six points clear of Chelsea – who Bayern beat 3-1 on Matchday 1!
Head-to-head record
Bayern have been the dominant force in this fixture, winning eight of the 14 meetings. The Bundesliga side have also recorded some huge wins at the Emirates, namely the infamous 5-1 victory in 2016-17.
The last time the two sides met in North London was back in the 2023-24 quarter-finals, a first-leg clash which finished 2-2 thanks to Leandro Trossard’s second-half equaliser.
Team news
Arsenal could welcome Martin Odegaard and Viktor Gyokeres back from injury, but Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus are set to miss out again, though both are nearing returns. Gabriel Magalhaes will be absent for at least a few more weeks.
As for Bayern, key winger Luis Diaz – who has 11 goals and five assists across all competitions this season – is suspended after his reckless red-card tackle on Achraf Hakimi in the win at PSG. Serge Gnabry is a doubt after missing the win over Freiburg, while Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies remain on the Bavarian treatment table.

Arsenal vs Bayern Munich Betting Tips
Anytime goalscorer – Leandro Trossard @ 4.00
Trossard seems to have found another level in recent weeks, with goals in back-to-back Premier League games vs Sunderland and Tottenham. The Belgian also scored in the Matchday 1 win at Athletic Bilbao, and, as previously touched on, netted a crucial equaliser the last time this match was played at the Emirates.
Anytime goalscorer – Harry Kane @ 2.63
Kane’s record – both this season and against Arsenal – speaks for itself. The England captain has 24 goals across all competitions in 2025-26 thus far, and tallied 15 goals in his 21 previous appearances vs the Gunners. Need we say any more?
Total goals – Over 3.5 @ 2.70
Bayern’s offensive power is well-documented, and with Arsenal missing a key defensive weapon in Gabriel, this could be a high-scoring match – especially if Kompany’s men strike first!
