Bayern Munich vs Arsenal: Clash of the Titans
Second Leg of Champions League Quarter-Finals to Decide Fate
Arsenal Aiming for Historic Semi-Final Berth
Arsenal are set to face off against Bayern Munich in a highly anticipated second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals tonight. The Gunners will be looking to reach the semi-finals of the competition for the first time since 2009, while Bayern Munich will be seeking to extend their dominance in European football.
In the first leg, Bayern Munich came out on top with a 2-1 victory at the Emirates Stadium. However, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta remains hopeful that his team can turn the tie around and secure a place in the last four.
"We have to come to fight," Arteta said. "We know it's a big challenge, but we believe in ourselves and we're going to give it everything we've got."
Arsenal will be without the suspended Thomas Partey, but they will be boosted by the return of Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian striker has been out injured since the first leg, but he is expected to be available for selection tonight.
Bayern Munich, meanwhile, will be without the injured Manuel Neuer and Sadio Mane. However, they will be confident of getting the job done at the Allianz Arena, where they have a formidable record.
The match is set to be a fascinating clash between two of European football's heavyweights. Arsenal will need to produce a performance of the highest quality if they are to overcome the challenge of Bayern Munich and reach the semi-finals.
