'This will be tightly contested to the death': prediction made for Bayern vs Arsenal

Speaking to CBS Sports, James Benge said: "Bayern Munich had all sorts of difficulties quelling Arsenal's right flank early in the first leg.

"The one facet that has been largely true of Arsenal's season so far is that they have responded to setbacks impressively, in game or the next time out.

"This will doubtless be frenetic, explosive and tightly contested to the death. Arsenal might just have the depth off the bench to overcome Bayern."

Benge's prediction: Bayern 1–2 Arsenal

Arsenal head into the second-leg clash against Bayern on the back of their disappointing slip-up against Aston Villa in the Premier League last week.

Winning the Champions League could save the Gunners' 2023/24 season and there will be everything to play for after the 2–2 draw in the first leg.
