Bayern are now preparing ahead of this exciting encounter, having seen their 100 percent record in Bundesliga end in their 0-0 draw at Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday.

After losing their first two group stage games against Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiakos, Arsenal have clawed their way back somewhat with the win over Bayern last month.
Bayern Munich midfielder Arturo Vidal has warned Premier League club Arsenal to prepare themselves to face the “best of Bayern” in their upcoming Champions League match, as per the reports on Bild. They are tied for points with Olympiacos FC.
But the win came with a hefty blow as Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain were both taken off early in Arsenal’s league cup defeat in the midweek. We are the first team who really challenged them, so they will be on the ball and try to show that they are back and better than us.
It followed 10 consecutive victories from the start of the season and, coupled with their 2-0 loss at the Emirates Stadium on October 20 – their first defeat in all competitions – Bayern have shed a few of that invincible aura.
“We know the difficulties we are going to find”.
PSG’s ambition is to continue dominating French football, which Blanc’s side have been doing, but they also want to become one of the finest European outfits- challenging the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich for continental glory.
The 24-year-old has quickly become a firm favourite with the Gunners’ faithful for his no-nonsense approach, not to mention the tussle with Chelsea striker Diego Costa at Stamford Bridge in September which saw the Brazilian shown a red card.
“I would sign today to take a point but to sit off Bayern”, the Arsenal manager said.
“My style of game is similar to the English style anyway, so I am very well adapted”.
