Now, the Bavarians are set to face Arsenal FC in the return of the Champions League, a massive game that will surely put the Germans to the test.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">One relevant aspect of Wednesday\u2019s game will be the absence of superstar Michael Olise, who is suspended after receiving a double yellow card in Bayern\u2019s recent trip to Norway against Viking FK. After smashing RB Leipzig, the midfielder gave an interview to Sky (as captured by <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/iMiaSanMia\/status\/2111551418616422909\" rel=\"nofollow\">@iMiaSanMia<\/a>), lamenting the fact that the Frenchman will not be available for the game. \u201cWe have one or two players carrying knocks from today, I hope it\u2019s nothing serious. Michael [Olise] will be unavailable due to the red card. Obviously, that makes things a bit more difficult for us, especially when it comes to replacing him in a top match like this,\u201d said Kimmich.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">However, the German international remains confident that whoever replaces Olise has the quality to fill in the void in the attack. \u201cBut we have plenty of quality in the squad and will give it everything we\u2019ve got. I\u2019m really looking forward to the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The match will be the most difficult test for the Rekordmeister in the season so far, but the Bavarians will hopefully add another win on their record against the London side, after having been beaten by the Gunners 3-1 last season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bayern Munich returned to winning ways for the first time since the international break when they beat RB&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":886365,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[29497,403,99],"class_list":["post-886364","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-bayern-munich-champions-league","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/886364","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=886364"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/886364\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/886365"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=886364"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=886364"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=886364"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
