A clash of champions at the Allianz Arena: At 9 p.m., German champions Bayern Munich and Arsenal, the reigning Premier League champions, will face off in Matchday 3 of the Champions League group stage. Both teams are undefeated, although the Bavarians stumbled on the last matchday, drawing on the road against Viking; the Gunners, on the other hand, crushed Lille. The match will be broadcast not only on Sky Sport and NOW but also for free on unencrypted TV8.

Harry Kane, a key player for Bayern Munich and a Ballon d’Or contender, will be supported by Karl, Saibari, and Luis Diaz. Kompany will have to do without the suspended Olise and the currently injured Musiala. Urbig is expected to start in goal in place of regular starter Neuer, who is dealing with a foot injury. Keep an eye out for the possible inclusion of Kim in defense.

Arteta is expected to start Gyokeres, who is favored over Havertz, while Saka, Ødegaard, and Eze will play in the attacking midfield. In midfield, the Rice-Guimaraes duo will start, with Timber and Calafiori on the wings.
