Bayern Munich host Arsenal at Allianz Arena on Wednesday, October 21 (3:00 PM ET / 2:00 PM CT / 12:00 PM PT).
No fresh fitness concerns have been flagged for either side ahead of kickoff. Harry Kane leads the Bayern Munich attack after scoring three goals in his first two Champions League appearances this season, with Michael Olise supplying the creative edge after 11 chances created and two goals of his own, while Joshua Kimmich and Jamal Musiala round out an experienced central core. Arsenal will again lean on their attacking midfield unit, with Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard and Eberechi Eze all involved after each have scored already this term, and Kai Havertz and Jurriën Timber offer extra options further forward and at the back respectively.
