Why we like this pick
Arsenal +0.5: Bayern keep tying games, and Arsenal are the hardest team in this tie to score against. That is why we want Arsenal with a head start in Munich. Bayern have won 10, tied 5 and lost 0 of their last 15. Unbeaten is impressive, but a third of those games finished level, including 3-3 at Viking, 2-2 at Augsburg and 0-0 at Schalke. They are without Jamal Musiala, and Michael Olise is suspended, so two of their best attackers sit this one out. Arsenal have lost twice in their last 17 games. They are 7 wins, 1 tie and 1 loss on the road, and they let in less than a goal a game away from home. They also won the last meeting between these clubs 3-1 in November 2025. Arsenal are missing William Saliba and Piero Hincapie, so they will play a makeshift pair at centre back. Both teams are short in a key area, which points to a careful, controlled night. A 1-1 finish is our read, and that keeps our side safe. The risk is plain enough. Bayern score just over 3 goals a game and have won by 2 or more goals in 7 of their last 15. Harry Kane against those stand-in centre backs is the clearest danger, and Arsenal had a day less rest. We still want them with the start.
