Bayern Munich vs Arsenal LIVE commentary: Harry Kane looks to continue scoring record against Gunners

Arsenal must contend with a familiar foe as they continue their Champions League campaign tonight. The Premier League champions travel to Germany to face Bayern Munich for the third season running, live on talkSPORT this evening. It follows a 3-1 home win for the Gunners during the league phase last term. However, they have only won one of their seven away matches against Bayern including back-to-back 5-1 defeats. Mikel Arteta’s side will also come up against Harry Kane , who has scored 15 goals in 22 matches against Arsenal during his career. The England captain has only scored more times against Leicester City (20) and Everton (16). Kane’s form against the Gunners since joining Bayern has been less prolific, though, with one goal in three matches since his move from Tottenham Hotspur . Despite that, his nine goals in 10 appearances across all competitions this season will provide enough of a warning for the visitors.
