FC Bayern München - Arsenal (PREVIEW)

Bayern carry a big lead from the first leg, when they beat Arsenal in London 2:0. Arsenal would therefore need to score three goals to knock the defending champions out of the competition. Even a 3:1 win for Arsenal would be enough to go through, however it is very unlikely Bayern will let their lead slip away. Expect a match, similar as the first leg, Arsenal will start positively and try to get an early goal, but as soon as Bayern start playing their game, it should be game over. Ribery will be back for this match which is also a big boost for the Bavarians. Bayern do not have any injury or suspension problems, Arsenal on the other hand will have to play without the suspended Sczeczny, while Walcott and Wilshere are injured. Aaron Ramsey is back in training though, but it is unlikely he will be back to full fitness in time for the return match.

Key Fantasy Players:

Bayern: Lahm, Robben, Gotze

Arsenal: Mertesacker, Cazorla, Giroud

Our Prediction: Bayern will do their business and win in a close match: 2-1.
