Arsenal vs. Bayern Munich match result: Draw
This mouthwatering clash sees two of the leading Champions League contenders lock horns. Both teams have a perfect record after four matches, and the performances have been excellent. With the teams so closely matched, we are backing the draw in our Arsenal vs Bayern predictions.
Bayern has the most deadly attack in Europe. The team is averaging 3.73 goals per game in the Bundesliga. It has also scored the most goals in the Champions League, averaging 3.5 per game. Harry Kane is proving difficult to stop. He has scored 24 goals in 18 competitive matches this season, and is supported in the attack by a rampant Michael Olise and Luis Diaz.
The Bavarians beat PSG, the reigning European champions, in their last match in this competition. However, if there is anyone who can stop Vincent Kompany’s fearsome forward line, it is Arsenal.
The Gunners are the only team yet to concede a goal in the league phase. Arsenal’s last European home game was a hugely impressive 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid. Diego Simeone’s team managed just one shot on target in that game.
Across all competitions, Arsenal has conceded just two goals in nine matches at the Emirates this season. The Bayern Munich attack should prove to be a tough test, but it is a challenge that Mikel Arteta’s team can rise to.
Both of these teams have earned the plaudits coming their way in the opening months of the season and are in commanding positions to win their respective domestic leagues. With Arsenal and Bayern firing on all cylinders, backing the draw is the value bet here. This is the longest odds bet on the 1×2 market, but it is very plausible given how closely matched these teams appear to be.
