UEFA Champions League Prediction: Bayern Munich vs Arsenal (21-10-2026)

Arsenal arrive with a perfect six points and two clean sheets, while Bayern sit on four after following their opening win with a 3-3 draw at Viking.

The Gunners are in excellent form, but Bayern’s remarkable European home record makes the hosts difficult to oppose at odds above 2.00.

Bayern’s record at the Allianz Arena is the strongest argument for this selection.

They have gone 39 consecutive UEFA Champions League group-stage or league-phase home matches unbeaten, winning 37 and drawing only two.

The German champions have also won their last nine home games at this stage of the competition.

Their domestic response to the draw in Norway was emphatic.

Bayern demolished RB Leipzig 6-1 at the weekend, with Luis Díaz scoring a hat-trick, providing an ideal confidence boost ahead of a considerably tougher European test.

Arsenal deserve plenty of respect. Mikel Arteta’s side beat Napoli 1-0 and Lille 3-0 in their opening two UEFA Champions League games and have now won 14 consecutive group-stage or league-phase matches. They have also lost just once in their last 13 away games in the competition.

The matchup in Munich has historically favoured Bayern, however. They have won five of seven UEFA Champions League home meetings with Arsenal, including the last three.

Overall, Bayern have eight wins from 15 meetings between the clubs.

Harry Kane remains another major factor. He has scored 15 career goals against Arsenal and enters this game having found the net in nine consecutive UEFA Champions League appearances.

Michael Olise is suspended and Jamal Musiala is unavailable, but Arsenal also travel without William Saliba.

Arsenal’s form makes this a genuine test, but Bayern Munich to win offers enough value given their extraordinary European home record, recent attacking performance and strong history against the Gunners in Munich.
