Arsenal and Bayern both have 100 per cent records
Both clubs are also the leaders of their domestic league
Recommended bet: Bayern Munich to win
Arsenal and Bayern Munich have one foot in the knockout stages of this season's UEFA Champions League after perfect starts to their campaigns, which means something has to give in North London.
The Gunners have played four, won four in Europe and are buzzing after thrashing rivals Spurs 4-1 to stretch their lead in the Premier League.
But Bayern, also with four wins from four, are also flying with Saturday's 6-2 drubbing of Freiburg making it 17 wins out of 18 in all competitions.

Team news
Martin Odegaard and Viktor Gyokeres could possibly return for Arsenal after lay-offs, though they are unlikely starters.
Centre-back Gabriel, plus strikers Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus, remain sidelined.
Bayern are without 11-goal Luis Diaz through suspension, which means Nicolas Jackson could start with Harry Kane dropping slightly deeper.
Joshua Kimmich insists he is fit after an ankle issue, while youngster Lennart Karl is a doubt.
The stats
Arsenal have won only three of the teams' 14 previous fixtures, most recently losing 1-0 in Bavaria in the second leg of their quarter-final tie in 2023/24.
Bayern have played 18 matches this season, winning 17 of them and drawing the other. They have scored 64 goals in those 18 games.
The Gunners, like Bayern, have won all four matches played so far, while Arsenal are the only team in the competition yet to concede a goal.
Over 2.5 goals has copped in all 18 Bayern games this season.
Bayern's Harry Kane has scored 26 goals this term for his club and England, failing to net in only four of 19 appearances.

Prediction
Everything points to this UEFA Champions League clash being an absolute blockbuster.
These are two of Europe's serious big-hitters right now, with Arsenal blazing a trail at the top of the Premier League and Bayern already looking uncatchable in the Bundesliga.
And in this competition, it is a perfect four wins out of four with enough points on the board already to suggest they have qualified for the knockout stage.
Bayern get the nod because they are in simply scintillating form having won all bar one of the 18 games they have played this term.
Vincent Kompany's men have scored at least two goals in each of their eight away games, including in the 2-1 win at Paris Saint-Germain on the previous matchday, a statement win if ever there was one.
Arsenal have only failed to win three of 18 themselves, but this is a big week to test Mikel Arteta's juggling skills with two huge London derbies either side of this game.
They passed the Tottenham test with flying colours, but Arteta will surely have Sunday's shootout at Chelsea on his mind when he picks his team.
It is Bayern's scoring power which might just prove the difference in a game which already looks like a free hit given their respective starts in the competition.
