The Gunners are set to face the German giants in the last-eight stage of the prestigious European club football competition. The Champions League is highly desired by Arsenal fans, as the team has never won it despite their illustrious history. Gary Neville, speaking on his podcast, expressed doubts about Arsenal’s chances against Bayern due to the latter’s experience, while also praising Arsenal for their recent form and performances. Neville acknowledged that Arsenal has been putting in strong, professional performances, including a solid defensive showing against Etihad.
However, he still believes that Arsenal may struggle against Bayern Munich, especially when facing them at the Allianz in the second leg. He pointed out the learning curve that teams often experience in the Champions League. In contrast, Thomas Tuchel’s team surrendered a 2-0 lead and ended up losing 3-2 to Heidenheim. These contrasting performances highlight the unpredictability of football.
