The Champions League remains the only target for Bayern Munich in the next six weeks after losing the Bundesliga title to Bayer Leverkusen over the weekend. Bayern need four wins to bring back the Champions League title to Allianz Arena. The first test comes against Arsenal on Wednesday in the second leg of the quarter-final stage.

Bayern delivered a resilient performance last week when they travelled to the Emirates Stadium. They could have won the game, but the 2-2 result was fair considering how both teams performed on the evening. Arsenal have suffered a blow in the Premier League title race on Sunday. They will look to bounce back with a quality performance at the Allianz Arena.

The Bavarian club has consistently got the better of Arsenal at the Allianz Arena in the last decade. The second leg on Wednesday will be far from straightforward. It will be a fascinating tactical battle between two teams full of world-class players. Let us look at key things to watch out for on Wednesday when Arsenal visit the Allianz Arena.
