Bayern Welcome Arsenal for Heavyweight Contest
Arsenal in Dire Need of Upset
Bavarians Dominate Recent History
Bayern Munich and Arsenal will face off in a heavyweight clash in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 second leg on Tuesday, March 7, 2017. The match will be played at Bayern's Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, with kickoff set for 19:45 CET.
Bayern have won the last two meetings between the two sides, both by the same 5-1 scoreline. The German champions will be looking to continue their dominance over Arsenal and secure a place in the quarterfinals.
Arsenal, on the other hand, will be desperate to avoid a third consecutive defeat to Bayern. The Gunners have not won a match in any competition since February 26 and will need to produce a major upset to progress to the next round.
Theo Walcott and Laurent Koscielny scored for Arsenal in the first leg, while Robert Lewandowski and Arjen Robben netted for Bayern. The match is finely poised at 2-1 on aggregate, with both teams having a chance to advance to the quarterfinals.
