Bayern, meanwhile, dropped two points after being held to a 3-3 draw by Vikings in their last outing, leaving them on four points going into the encounter.
Ahead of the match, an unusual prediction has captured attention online. Nimbus Pronos, a cat widely followed for its sports forecasts, shared its verdict on the fixture through a video posted on Instagram.
The oracle's verdict was a draw between the two sides, though observers of the video noted a moment of hesitation that some have interpreted as a possible hint toward an Arsenal victory.
Whether the cat's prediction proves accurate remains to be seen, but the build-up to the Allianz Arena encounter suggests neither side will settle for a point.
Bayern vs Arsenal recent UCL history
The two sides share a competitive recent history in European competition. According to Sofascore, their last three Champions League meetings produced one win each and a draw, making the upcoming clash genuinely difficult to call.
Notably, the sides met at this stage last season, with Mikel Arteta's Arsenal claiming a 3-1 victory at the Emirates Stadium to establish an edge in recent head-to-head form.
The broader European backdrop has also raised expectations. Paris Saint-Germain's dramatic 4-2 victory over Barcelona on Tuesday set the tone for a week of high-scoring, compelling Champions League football, and supporters of both clubs will be hoping Wednesday's match delivers a similar spectacle.
