The Gunners enter the game in top form, having won 10 of their last 11 games in the league in 2024 while Bayern have suffered consecutive defeats in the Bundesliga. While Mikel Arteta’s side are filled with confidence against a team that has been their bogey team in Europe in the past, fans have been left disappointed ahead of the match due to the club’s decision to urge supporters to buy matchday programmes in order to create a tifo spectacle in the stadium. On their official website, Arsenal wrote: “With that additional home advantage in mind and 60,000 Gooners packed into our home, we are urging all our supporters with a ticket to wear something red if they can to help create an incredible spectacle for our players.
To help with this, our official matchday programme will also have a special all-red cover, meaning you also hold this up when the players enter the field and at other key moments in the game to help generate a brilliant visual – so make sure you pick one up from the sellers around the stadium before kick-off!” “Will Arsenal defeat Bayern Munich at the Emirates? What a joke”, another said.
The spectacle “could have been so iconic” while a third supporter added: “That is never ever going to work because many won’t do it. The club messed up big time here”. Arsenal have turned over a new leaf under Arteta, their record against Bayern in recent years is startling to say the least.
Since 2000, the Bavarian giants have knocked out the North London side out of the Champions League four times, all at the round of 16 stage.
