If you look at what happened in the past, the competition between Bayern Munich and Arsenal was not that fierce because Arsenal did not always perform well on the Champions League stage, unlike Bayern Munich and even in the last meeting the two Bayern Munich teams were able to beat Arsenal easily.
Even though this season is different, if you look at the overall performance of the two teams in the Champions League match, Bayern Munich is much better than Arsenal.
I think several player injuries due to the international break will not have a significant impact because teams like Bayern Munich and Arsenal have quite capable back-up players and whatever the situation, the match between these two teams will be quite interesting.
Arsenal have a bad record when it comes to dealing with Bayern Munich so far, as you said, although this season is different because Arsenal have performed better than Bayern Munich in the league, but still the mentality possessed by Bayern Munich in the Champions League has not changed until now, in the round of 16 match then we can make a benchmark how the mentality possessed by Bayern Munich continues to strengthen as they continue Underestimated, so far Bayern Munich and Arsenal have met as many as 12 meetings, Bayern Munich appeared mighty by winning 7 times, 2 draws and 3 losses against Arsenal.
That's why I think this season it's no different from the previous season and it will be difficult for Arsenal to beat Bayern Munich even though Munich are missing some main players, because Bayern Munich has a good reserve squad, but I think it's different with Arsenal, because if you look so far, Arsenal reserve players don't have a strong mentality and are as good as their main players and that's why Arteta often fielded their players main thing in the league even when facing small teams.
