Champions League: Bayern set for Arsenal test without red-hot Olise

Vanguard News | 20-10-2026 08:48am |

Bayern Munich will host English champions Arsenal in the Champions League on Wednesday without in-form winger Michael Olise, who is suspended after picking up two yellow cards inside a minute in Bayern's 3-3 draw with Viking last week. Olise, who started in Arsenal's junior system, was sent off for the first time in his career after throwing the ball at Viking captain Zlatko Tripic's head in response to verbal provocation. The former Crystal Palace winger has nine goals and five assists from 10 games in all competitions for Bayern this season. With Jamal Musiala struggling with injury and illness and both Serge Gnabry and Lennart Karl well off their best form, Olise's absence is a significant blow for Bayern.
