The possibility of Barcelona playing well is quite doubtful and in my opinion this is not a fairly balanced match. I see that PSG is still slightly ahead of Barcelona and I think the chances of Barcelona winning are not big. What is clear is that this is the first quarter-final for Barcelona after several previous seasons they never reached this round and of course the pressure and fan expectations will really haunt the players.

PSG has always been one of the strong candidates to win the Champions League but they have repeatedly failed. But of course, by spending quite a bit of money to develop the squad, there will be times when this team will be like Manchester City in winning its first title in the Champions League. However, I am quite doubtful that PSG can do it again this season considering that there are still quite a lot of other tough opponents and the most important thing is that they have to get rid of Barcelona first before determining their next step.

The performance of a soccer team can change drastically from year to year, so even if the recent matches between two teams can be taken into account, at the same time we cannot really give them too much weight, and instead we must consider the current performance of the teams, the quality of the opponents they have faced, the results they got, the injuries of their key players and even the amount of minutes each one of those players has played recently, in order to get a better idea of which team between Arsenal and Bayern Munich will make it to the next round.

Actually, Bayern Munich are still in the same performance as last season, because if we compare them in terms of points, actually their points tally is not much different, it's just that what makes them look like they are declining is because Leverkusen has performed so extraordinary this season that it has created a big gap. It seems as if Bayern Munich is performing badly, even though it's actually not.
Arsenal are better than last season, I agree, because they can survive this far and I can't remember the last time they were in the quarter-finals like this. Even in the Premier League, they can still show very tight competition, they are even at the top of the standings even though in terms of points there is actually no gap between them. However, if compared with last season, they couldn't even survive when they needed a good performance to be able to compete, but they couldn't do it until the end. But this season they look better prepared than before, so their chances are also bigger in my opinion.

Bayern Munich opportunity for winning Bundesliga have been over after remaining 10 points left from Bayern Leverkusen, its acceptable reason if Thomas Tuchel will priority for winning Champion League than Bundesliga although have to face many top team after success qualifying from quarter final.
Seems small and over opportunity for defending Bundesliga tittle for Bayern Munich had dominance over ten years after inconsistency performance in domestic league and other side Leverkusen keep unbeaten until 38 matches all competition in this season.
Champion League tittle is last opportunity and hope for Bayern Munich fans to win trophy this season, DFB Pokal have eliminated since 16 of round and Bundesliga remaining 10 points left.

It is an unreliable source for comparing both clubs. I meant that if we've moved forward and there have been many changes in any of the clubs since then. Both of clubs have been making significant improvement and arsenal is not as weak as what it used to be. Arsenal's head-to-head record against Bayern Munich is no longer reliable enough to be used as a benchmark to determine the outcome from the upcoming match. Arsenal is gradually gaining ground, whereas Bayern Munich has not made significant progress.
That being said, Arsenal is likely to have a good chance of defeating Bayern this time around. I'm sure that people They are totally aware of this, and this is also the reason they are also feeling skeptical about which teams will be able to play better.




I can't deny that historical results have a small impact on the odds, and bookmakers appear to use them to determine the odds for both clubs and it cna be seen from the odds between both of clubs. Arsenal is coming with a very strong club this time, and I must admit that Arteta has made significant improvements to the squad.
I'm hoping that Bayern will be able to maintain its dominance over Arsenal soon. All of the major teams are competing in the UCL quarterfinal.

Things have changed dramatically since the beginning of this decade as many teams evolve into better forms.

Tough one? That's not the game between Paris Saint Germans and Barcelona. This is already a game we know that, Paris Saint Germans would definitely win. I can recall back to when Barcelona dumped out Paris Saint Germans out of the competition twice one with the help of Lionel Messi and the other with the entire team work. That was the last season of Neymar Junior in the La Liga League Competition.

But right now, we'd see Luis Enrique who is already experienced in this Competition go head to head against Xavi Hernandez a player he once managed and they went ahead to win the Champions League Competition that same season. I'm certain Paris Saint Germans would dump Barcelona...

Hot cake has got to be between Arsenal and Bayern Munich, so much hype oozing out from them fans saying they'd beat Bayern Munich. How is this even possible?

This was a fierce battle especially as Arsenal wanted revenge against Bayern Munich after Arsenal's massacre in the past, with Bayern scoring five goals in a match against Arsenal at least three times. Moreover, Arsenal is on fire this season, even in first place in the EPL league, and Arsenal's game is much better under Arteta.

However, it is true that this season Bayern Munich's performance is much worse than Arsenal, but they still have more experience and especially since they almost lost the Bundesliga title race to Leverkusen, you can be sure they will put all their concentration on the UCL. So they also have full potential to win in the UCL, at least they can win one of the two matches. Because of course Arsenal's concentration is still divided between the EPL league and the UCL league.

These teams entering the quarterfinals are all strong teams, quite evenly matched, even though fans always rate Mancity and Real Madrid as the highest. However, they can all be beaten by the remaining teams, competition is present in all matches from this round onwards. Maybe because the fans and people who love these two teams are significantly more than the other teams, it is understandable that they feel that this is the early and most competitive final.

I also look forward to a victory for Barcelona and hope that they can win the championship. It will be interesting if Xavi can lead Barca to win the prestigious trophy after instability and financial difficulties. Barca's fan will have a different look at Xavi, the Champion League trophy is well deserved for Xavi's contributions to Barca.

Comparing Bayern Munich and Arsenal based on previous matches of them might not provide an accurate reflection of their current chance to win the match. Arsenal's Their momentum and confidence could give them an edge, but Bayern Munich, despite recent setbacks, remains a tough opponent with a rich experience in Champions League. It's a common understanding that experience and mentality play a role in a knock out stage of Champions League. This is why Bayern is still the favorite to win the match.

Bayern's track record and ability to perform under pressure cannot be underestimated, even if they've experienced some recent dips in form. The outcome of the tie may indeed come down to factors like goal difference. Both teams will undoubtedly be aiming to secure a positive result in each leg to advance to the next stage of the competition. Arsenal may be enjoying a strong run in the Premier League and Bayern Munich may have faced some challenges recently, but anything can happen over the course of two legs, and both teams will be eager to prove their worth on the European stage.

Yeah both teams are in different situations this season we can't compare their performance based on last season's matches and each team has its own advantages, here in the first leg Arsenal are very favorites to win then in the second leg of course Bayern Munich are the favourites well as I said before the goal difference will determine who will go to the next stage. One thing I note is that Arsenal is on fire in the Premier League while Bayern Munchen are not doing much better due to some recent bad results..

Expectations for Arsenal this season are quite high, not only in the Premier League, but also in the Champions League as well. It is understandable and very reasonable, because Arteta squad has developed to be better in many aspects, so they have the opportunity to get rid of Bayern Munich in the quarter finals later. Not a few fans hope that Arsenal can go further and win the Champions League even though they are not the favorites, and I think Arsenal does have a chance to make their dream come true. Qualifying for the quarter finals is an extraordinary achievement, because previously it was predicted that Arsenal would be eliminated early because they had a bad history in the last 16.

Bayern Munich reputation in the Champions League is no longer in doubt, apart from knowing how to win, Thomas Tuchel squad is also very adept at showing different performances. Meanwhile, the match between Arsenal and Bayern Munich will likely rely more on the home match factor, which in my opinion will make the two teams look more dominant when playing in front of their own supporters. On the other hand, for Arteta, this was the best experience in his managerial career, leading his squad to play in the quarter finals of the Champions League.

I think now that Arsenal knows they are going to play against Bayern Munich, you are worried because of the past games because now there is a chance for Bayern Munich to score five goals again against Arsenal. Except for the recent fiend match they had in ~5 years ago in which Arsenal won the game with a 2-1 result. In the other games they had, Bayern Munich won the game with a 5-1 result, and scoring five goals is not something normal at all.
Now Arsenal is not in a bad situation Bayern Munich is under pressure because of losing the Bundesliga title and they have to beat Arsenal, I'm waiting to see how Bayern Munich and Tuchel can perform against Arsenal.

It's looking very much like Bayern Munich actually did prioritized the champions league than they did with any other league because their performance aswell has also shown how much they have seem to invest in the champions league this season probably because they are not really hoping to get much from.ths bundesliga so they want to channels the remaining effort to the champions league and utilize it.

Munich has actually had a better results so far in the champions league but then it isn't an indication that they are any better than Arsenal a d are certain about winning Arsenal, they are most definitely going to still have to perform well enough against Arsenal to be able to be sure of getting pass the stages which they currently at now in the champions league and if they don't get to perform well enough as they should, it going to be the end of their journey a.d maybe Dortmund will continue with the German representation I'm the champions league this season.

Arsenal on the other hand is trying to strive to making sure they are able to get a record of getting to the champions league finals again as they haven't been able to achieve that again in a long time so that's what they may be aiming to really want to achieve this period as they have got a good teams and a good coach too aswell so they will just have to make sure they are I the best frame to defeat Munich already.

Aside Manchester City Vs Real Madrid match, Arsenal Vs Bayern and Barcelona Vs PSG are the two most interesting matches to watch.

When it comes to Champions League football, experience is something to be considered and some past record between the two teams particularly the recent records they all have against each others.

Barcelona did not have good start this season same as PSG, and the two of them have recovered as they are now doing well in their domestic leagues. This match will a tough one, but Barcelona will use experience to eliminate PSG just as they did in the past because psg team is not too good enough compared to last season, that is why they are not in my favorite list because they only rely on Mbappe.

I'm really hopeful for Arsenal this year and I think they will eliminate Bayern Munich.
Yes, Bayern Munich is a strong team that knows how to win, but Arsenal is different this year.
We will watch and see on April 9th.

Bayern Munich are winning team and always leading to glory, doesn't come here to play, they mean business and they will continue to dominate, because they're experienced teams that have won major titles unlike Arsenal that's struggling. Don't give dieing hopes for Gunners because they're losing the both UCL quarter-finals. They're yet to prove how bold they would become this season, always bringing on their best performance against average teams but when it comes to elite, they ensure they're securely triggering the big moves and winnings becomes sure.

It definitely won't be an easy game for Barcelona to face PSG though, but sometimes what matters when it comes to Champions League game is the teams' experience in competition, which Barcelona got, Barcelona may not have the quality of players to match with their opponent team PSG, But the players in there could use experience to get a better result out of the game, I still don't think it gonna be an easy game on the side PSG as you may have thought, there's still a possibility that Barcelona could win in this game regardless.

If we view these matches based on such facts, we will have a different atmosphere on the pitch of play. The match between Bayern Munich and Arsenal is one of the most anticipated in this round of quarterfinals. Bayern Munich have historically outperformed Arsenal in terms of trophies as well as previous Champions League experience. So, if we want the match to be played based on all of this, it will only be one-sided, with Bayern Munich winning. The excitement comes from not knowing which team will win, as both have a chance of winning.

That is just the fact that should be acceptable that you have just mentioned, that in the champions league Bayern Munich has a better win record than Arsenal, and in the domestic league Arsenal has more chances than Bayern Munich, which makes it obvious that even though Bayern Munich will get a win in Arsenal, it should be at the second leg that Arsenal will play an away game. If not, I see no hope for Bayern Munich to win them in a home game; it will be very hard.

Moreover, the performance of Arsenal presently doesn’t show that they are ready to lose hope in the Champions League yet. That is why I have more potential for them to make it to the semifinals, if not the finals. That is why I believe that Bayern Munich will not be an issue for Arsenal, even though with their experience, Arsenal will always get the chance to meet them, and I hope to see the game as I expected. 

If we are to use past records to judge this match then we all know how it has been with the two teams, I mean Bayern Munich have completely destroyed arsenal in the past and they can do it once more again besides the heavy lost could even have negative mindset on the players of arsenal despite the fact  that they might have good current form because that's how past records could affect a team.
