Arsenal vs Bayern Munich: The results of their last 10 meetings

Arsenal and Bayern Munich meet in one of the juiciest Champions League quarter-finals of the 2023/24 season.

The Gunners have been brilliant so far in 2024 and have the chance to dish out some revenge for the heavy European defeats the Bavarians handed out to them during the 2010s. Thomas Tuchel's side won't win the Bundesliga title this season and have lost their last two games.

On the other hand, Mikel Arteta's squad is filled with optimism and sit at the top of the Premier League table after the weekend's action.

Attention from both sides now turns to Tuesday's first leg. Here's how they've fared in their last ten competitive meetings.

Arsenal 1-5 Bayern Munich - 7 March 2017

There were a few nadirs from Arsenal's 'banter era', but this humiliation in 2017 might take first place.

The Gunners had made a bright start as they went about attempting to overturn a huge first-leg deficit as Theo Walcott netted. However, Laurent Koscielny was sent off at the start of the second half, allowing Robert Lewandowski to convert from the penalty spot.

A second-half Arsenal implosion saw Arjen Robben and Douglas Costa hit the back of the net before Arturo Vidal grabbed a late brace. The heavy defeat saw the Gunners knocked out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage for the seventh season in a row and they wouldn't play in the competition again until 2023.

Bayern Munich 5-1 Arsenal - 15 February 2017

At one point in this last-16 first leg, things were looking reasonably rosy for Arsenal in Bavaria.

Robben had brilliantly fired in from 25 yards but Alexis Sanchez's rebound from a saved penalty meant the sides were level at half-time. However, the tie ran away from the visitors during a ten-minute period early in the second half which saw Lewandowski head in and Thiago Alcantara bag twice.

Thomas Muller crashed in a late fifth, leaving Arsenal's Champions League hopes in tatters.

Bayern Munich 5-1 Arsenal - 4 November 2015

Arsenal had beaten Bayern only a few weeks before this 5-1 defeat but were majorly outclassed when they made the return visit during the 2015 Champions League group stages.

Arsene Wenger's side were powerless to prevent a Bayern onslaught in the first half as Lewandowski headed in, Muller finished sharply and David Alaba struck to put the hosts 3-0 up at half-time.

Robben and Muller made it five goals on the night for the German giants, with Olivier Giroud's volley proving to be the smallest of consolations.

Arsenal 2-0 Bayern Munich - 20 October 2015

Hurrah! Finally, a meeting that didn't end 5-1!

October 2015 was the last time Arsenal have beaten Bayern Munich and their group stage had gone horribly in the build-up, losing their opening two games to Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiacos.

The Gunners had to dig in for large parts of the contest and got their rewards late in the second half, first through Giroud and then Mesut Ozil in the 94th minute.

Bayern Munich 1-1 Arsenal - 11 March 2014

Arsenal couldn't manage to avoid defeat in the first leg of their last-16 tie with Bayern in 2014, losing after Wojciech Szczesny's red card was compounded by strikes from Toni Kroos and Muller.

That made the trip to Germany a daunting one and they couldn't gather enough momentum to make a first of reaching the quarter-finals. Bastian Schweinsteiger's effort was quickly cancelled out on the night by Lukas Podolski, with Bayern too strong to allow any late drama.

They'd defeat Manchester United in the last eight before eventual winners Real Madrid eliminated them in the semi-finals.
