Bayern host Arsenal without suspended Olise, with Neuer expected back

Bayern Munich host Arsenal in the Champions League on Wednesday without Michael Olise, who is suspended after his red card in the 3-3 draw at Viking. Both sides sit in the top ten of the league phase table, Arsenal seventh on six points and Bayern tenth on four.

Arsenal's clean sheets against Bayern's goals

Arsenal have won both of their league-phase games, against Napoli and Lille, and have not conceded: four goals for, none against. On Sunday they added a 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest through a deflected effort from substitute Noni Madueke, a game in which Forest manager Oliver Glasner said his side gave Arsenal "one shot on target".

Bayern have scored eight and let in three in two games. They were 2-0 down at half-time at Viking before Harry Kane scored twice and Luis Díaz put them ahead, and the draw was only secured after Olise was sent off.

The Olise ban

Olise was booked for a cynical pull of the shirt and immediately received a second yellow for throwing the ball in the face of a Viking player. "This red card was super dumb," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said. "You can see in Olise's eyes that he's sorry about it and that he regrets letting the team down."

The France international has nine goals and five assists in 10 games this season, according to Arsenal Insider. Bayern midfielder Joshua Kimmich said: "Obviously, that makes things a bit more difficult for us, especially when it comes to replacing him in a top match like this. But we have plenty of quality in the squad and will give it everything we've got."

Neuer and Musiala

Bayern's mood improved on Saturday with a 6-1 win over RB Leipzig in which Díaz scored a hat-trick. Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer missed that game with a foot problem, with Jonas Urbig playing instead. The Evening Standard, citing Sky Sport in Germany, reported that Neuer is expected back in goal against Arsenal. Jamal Musiala, who tore a muscle fibre in his right thigh on international duty, had not played since, the Standard added.

Kimmich also said after the Leipzig game that one or two players were carrying knocks and that he hoped it was nothing serious, so Kompany's final team selection is still open.
