Bayern Munich host Arsenal in a heavyweight Champions League clash at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, with both sides looking to strengthen their position in the league phase. Vincent Kompany’s men head into the contest on the back of a commanding 6-1 Bundesliga victory over RB Leipzig, but will be without the suspended Michael Olise and the injured Jamal Musiala. Joshua Kimmich is also unavailable for personal reasons.
Arsenal, meanwhile, have made a perfect start to their European campaign, beating Napoli 1-0 and Lille 3-0 without conceding a goal. Mikel Arteta’s side will be aiming to extend that run against a Bayern team eager to avenge last season’s 3-1 defeat in London.
With just about an hour to go until kick-off, here are both teams' confirmed lineups:
