BAYERN MUNICH could be about to spring a tactical shock against Arsenal.

After a 2-2 draw at the Emirates, the last-16 tie is delicately poised going into this evening’s clash.

And Bild claim Thomas Tuchel is ready to shake things up in a bid to ensure the Gunners’ sights are off.

Alphonso Davies is suspended after being booked in the first leg with one of Noussair Mazraoui and Raphael Guerreiro expected to replace him.

But Bayern’s pre-match training session saw the pair both feature in what is expected to be the first team, with Thomas Muller playing for the reserves.

Arsenal talisman Bukayo Saka is the visitors’ main driving force and it appears Tuchel, 50, is planning to double up on the danger man.

Bild believe Mazraoui will play at left-back with Guerreiro playing higher up.

Bayern will still have plenty of firepower with Jamal Musiala  operating behind Harry Kane.

The former Tottenham hitman will need no extra motivation to face his former club’s bitter rivals.

But a chance to go all the way in Europe and finally break his trophy duck is a huge factor.

Kane, who was a beaten finalist with Tottenham in 2019, said: “For sure (it is unfinished business), whenever you reach the final of a competition and don’t quite get over the line there’s always that burning fire inside you to get back there and go that one step further.”

Spurs fans may have mixed feelings, however, as the Premier League is in real danger of losing its fifth Champions League spot next season.

If the Gunners KO Bayern, it will be a massive boost England’s battle with Germany to have five clubs in the competition.

Tottenham currently sit fifth in the league – three points off in-form Aston Villa in fourth.
