Mikel Arteta’s army is placing great hopes on the upcoming clash at Allianz Arena.
Arsenal had a light training session at London Colney before traveling to Germany to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-final second leg.
Even though they just lost to Aston Villa at the weekend and lost their right to self-determination in the EPL championship race, the Gunners stars’ mood in general is still quite comfortable.
In a recent interview, Declan Rice affirmed that Arsenal need to prove themselves in the next 90 minutes at Allianz Arena.
Jurrien Timber, after a long period of injury treatment, seems to have returned to the necessary physical condition.
He competes vigorously on the practice field.
The return of the Dutch rookie may help the Gunners’ left wing’s worries be somewhat resolved, in the context that neither Jakub Kiwior nor Oleksandr Zinchenko could meet expectations.
Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka will probably start as wing strikers. Both possess good dribbling ability. Besides, they also have spatial awareness to choose favorable positions in defensive support situations.
The highest player in the attack will probably still be Kai Havertz. The German star can actually still play as a left-sided number 8, but he is achieving maximum effectiveness in the role of false number 9.
