Bayern Munich vs Arsenal - Betting Preview
I think there will be a plenty of people out there that would remember the game from last season and feel Arsenal have a chance of getting some sort of result here, especialy if they play as they did in the first leg before the sending off their goalkeeper.
The problem this time is that Bayern Munich will be a lot more aware of what Arsenal could potentially do here and that should focus the minds a little more on getting the job done. I also do believe the fact that the Bavarians had three goals last year meant they relaxed a little more than they will be this time.
With the defeat to Manchester CIty also clear int the mind, I think Bayern Munich will come out with a little more to prove in this one and it would be a mountain to climb for Arsenal if they fall behind in the game.
It may also see Arsene Venger turning his thoughts to the North London derby to be played on Sunday and any attempt by his side to push forward in search of goals could see them get beaten fairly comfortably in this second leg. I can't underestimate the Gunners after their exploits a year ago, but I also saw some of the defending problems in recent away games at Southampton and Liverpool and I have to back Bayern Munich to win this by a couple of goals at least.
Lack of concetration si probably Bayern Munich's biggest obstacle to overcome in this second leg, but if they score first, they should prove too good. I'll back Bayern Munich on -1.5 Asian Handicap @ 1.85
Pick: Bayern Munich -1.5 AH
Odds: 1.85
Stake: 6/10
