Ozil out of Arsenal, Bayern Clash

Arsenal will be hoping to overturn their 5-1 first-leg deficit against Bayern Munich in the Champions League last-16, when they host the German stalwarts at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night. It can be viewed live online thru FuboTV.

It is not the first time the two teams meet each other in the competition, and so far Bayern Munich progressed on each occasion.

Some players thrive when they are at the heart of controversy, with the likes of Luis Suarez, Carlos Tevez and Cristiano Ronaldo all showing that defiant streak in recent seasons, but Sanchez failed to step up to the plate against Bayern.

This is the 12th meeting between these sides in the Champions League, Bayern have won six of the previous 11 games with Arsenal winning three (D2).

However, Bayern coach Carlo Ancelotti is well aware of the fact that it is possible to blow large first-leg leads in the Champions League.

Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain are leading the chase with the Gunners’ top scorer looking for upwards of £300,000 per week at his next club. “I don’t think he’s ready to be in the squad”, manager Arsene Wegner, 67, said ahead of this game, according to BBC.

“I felt we were in it and you never know how Bayern would have reacted had we scored a second goal”.

It may be easier to list the things that aren’t a problem at Arsenal now. Alexis Sanchez was recently benched for a rumored scuffle with his teammates in practice, which resulted in a 1-3 loss to Liverpool in the Premier League last Saturday.

The England global has been in and out of the Arsenal first-team this season as Arsene Wenger continues to experiment with the highly-rated 23-year-old in a number of different positions. “I don’t feel I box myself in a corner”.

“It’s about the team performance, not individuals”. Tomorrow could be a good moment to show we are focused from the beginning. Also in last 5 Champions League matches Bayern lost one matches and that was against Rostov.

Douglas Costa made it 3-1 to the visitors in the 77th minute, while Arturo Vidal grabbed a fourth with ten minutes left.

Meanwheile, Petr Cech, Francis Coquelin, Alex Iwobi and Olivier Giroud have dropped out.
