Thomas Muller is Bayern’s top scorer with four goals overall against the Gunners, while Olivier Giroud has netted three total goals for Arsenal. Let’s have a closer look at what happened in previous occasions:
2015 - The two teams met in the group stage of the competition. The Gunners prevailed 2-0 in the first match in London, while Bayern smashed Arsenal 5-1 in the reverse fixture in Munich.
2014 – Just like this year, Bayern and Arsenal were drawn together in the Last 16. Bayern snatched a 2-0 win at the Emirates and with the second leg in Munich ending in a 1-1 draw the German team advanced.
2013 – This was the second time Bayern knocked out Arsenal in the Round of 16. The Munich side won 3-1 in London and despite Arsenal’s 2-0 win away in the return leg, Bayern advanced on away goals.
2005 – This is where it all begun, it can be argued, as this was the year Bayern first eliminated Arsenal in this stage of the Champions League. The German team clinched a 3-1 victory in the first leg at home and Arsenal’s 1-0 win in the second leg in London was not enough.
