The Champions League quarter-final tie between Bayern Munich and Arsenal is finely poised at 2-2 heading into the second leg at the Allianz Arena.

Here's how the Bayern and Arsenal squads are shaping up for the game on Wednesday.

Bayern Munich Team News

Bayern will be missing several key players for the game. Alphonso Davies is suspended following his yellow card last week, while Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman have been ruled out due to injury.

Leroy Sane isn't fully fit, either, but he may have to play through a bit of pain if he is going to feature against Arsenal.

Sacha Boey, Bouna Sarr, Tarek Buchmann and Gabriel Marusic are also out injured.

Key player: Bayern

Harry Kane returned to North London to haunt Arsenal once again with a well-taken penalty at the Emirates a week ago. If Bayern are to emerge victorious, he'll likely be at the centre of the success.

Arsenal Team News

Arsenal have a major injury problem as Martin Odegaard was forced off in the second half in the loss versus Aston Villa on Wednesday. The extent of the injury isn't known, but even if he is half-fit, Mikel Arteta will select him in Germany.

Jurrien Timber remains out after his serious knee injury.

Both Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus have been carrying niggles recently, but they should be okay to feature.
