Arsenal vs Bayern Munich. Possible line-ups and latest news standard.co.uk

Today, April 9th, Arsenal will play against Bayern Munich in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals at the Emirates Stadium in London. Dailysports has prepared the latest news on the match for you, as well as the expected line-ups for both teams.

Mikel Arteta can be envied by any coach. The Spanish coach approaches a very important match against Bayern Munich almost without any personnel problems. The only Arsenal player who won't be able to play against Munich is versatile defender Jurrien Timber. However, the Dutchman has been out for the entire current season due to a cruciate ligament tear.

One of the most interesting questions regarding Arsenal's lineup is who will start on the left flank of defense. Mikel Arteta has three options: Jakub Kiwior, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Alexander Zinchenko. In the last two matches, Arteta chose the Ukrainian player. Everything indicates that he will start in the lineup today as well.

The return of striker Gabriel Jesus to the starting lineup is also expected, as in previous games, Kai Havertz played in his position.

Bayern Munich had doubts about the participation of Manuel Neuer, Noussair Mazraoui, Leroy Sané, Kingsley Coman, and Alexandar Pavlovic. All of them missed the previous match against Heidenheim (2-3) due to minor injuries but have resumed training and are included in the squad for the match against Arsenal.

Now, only right-backs Sacha Boey and Bouna Sarr remain in the Munich club's infirmary.

Possible Arsenal line-up

  • Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Rice, Ødegaard, Havertz; Saka, Jesus, Martinelli

Possible Bayern Munich line-up

  • Neuer; Kimmich, De Ligt, Dier, Guerreiro; Laimer, Goretzka; Sané, Musiala, Coman; Kane

The match kicks off at 21:00 Central European Time.
