Tonight looks huge for this Arsenal team.
After the deflation of their 2-0 home defeat to Aston Villa at the weekend, which gave Manchester City the initiative in the title race, the pressure on them has increased to another level.
It’s fair to say the Gunners were miles from their best in the first leg, it seemed the enormity of the occasion got to them. They can’t let that happen tonight.
Comparing the two seasons that Arsenal and Bayern Munich have had respectively, Arsenal should be the favorites tonight.
However, their last two performances have thrown caution to the wind and Bayern look like they are in a better position to advance tonight.
Even with all that, this match is so difficult to call that you can almost forget the first leg after it ended tied.
It all comes down to tonight, do Arsenal have the courage?
