Arsenal will need to overturn Bayern Munich’s one-goal lead at the Emirates tonight if the Gunners are to progress to their first Women’s Champions League semi-final in 10 years.

Lea Schuller’s header in Germany gives Bayern Munich the advantage ahead of the quarter-final second leg, although Arsenal will take confidence from their performance at the Allianz Arena last week.

Jonas Eidevall’s side had two shots cleared off the line and hit the post in the 1-0 defeat, but their fortunes in front of goals improved in their 5-1 win over rivals Tottenham in the Women’s Super League on Saturday.

Arsenal have sold over 20,000 tickets for the clash as the Gunners look to advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League for the first time since 2013, with either Paris Saint-Germain or Wolfsburg waiting in the final four.

Here’s everything you need to know.
