Current Form
Bayern won their last game against Cologne 2-0 in Munich. However, their 11-year Bundesliga title run came to an end. Leverkusen won their game as well, and won their first ever Bundesliga title. Nevertheless, Bayern fans came to support them and the stadium was full. Given that their season is over, Bayern rested some of their key players for tonight. Thomas Tuchel can now concentrate only on the Champions League and Arsenal. They definitely have something to hope for as they drew in London, 2-2. Bayern has a dominant record when drawing the first leg away from home in UEFA games (22 wins and only 3 losses). However, they have been knocked out of the Champions League quarterfinals in the last three years.
Harry Kane said that he was optimistic. “We have a great opportunity in our Arena. It will be a fantastic atmosphere. We have great belief in ourselves and want to achieve something special,” said Harry Kane. This is the most important game of the season for them. Winning this game could save their trophyless season.
Arsenal lost their last game at home against Aston Villa 0-2. This loss was huge, as it put them back in 2nd spot. Manchester City are now two points above them, and it seems like a deja-vu all over again. The Gunners are fighting for the semifinals spot for the first time in 14 years. After suffering a setback in the Premier League, Mikel Arteta said that they are frustrated and sad, but now are looking ahead and getting ready for tonight. “Sunday’s game doesn’t have any bearing on tomorrow. ”We’re very focused, are ready and want to show it on the pitch,” said Arteta, looking ahead to the game at the Allianz Arena. Before the last two games, Arsenal were in great form. We all know how the last season went down for them. They were up almost throughout the whole season, and ended up being in 2nd spot at the end. Football is like that. If you do not stay consistent until the very end, your great season can become a terrible season very quickly.
Best Bet to Make
Given their Champions League experience, we believe that Bavaria should be favorites tonight. The bookies are considering this game as a 50-50 one, even though Bayern are playing at home in front of the full stadium. We believe that Arsenal will fumble under the pressure, and that Bayern will win at home and proceed to the semifinals.
That being said, Bayern winning is a value bet.
