Latest football news: If Arsenal were to draw Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, they would definitely have a significant edge

After defeating Porto and Lazio, respectively, both teams are now eligible to compete in the last-eight draw that will take place on Friday.

In the event that Bayern Munich will be drawn against Arsenal in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, fans of the club will be prohibited from attending the Emirates Stadium.

As a result of fans throwing fireworks onto the pitch during Bayern’s 3-1 victory at Lazio earlier this month, UEFA has decided to prohibit Bayern supporters from attending the away leg of their last-eight match after they were found guilty of doing so.

The pyrotechnics that were let off by traveling fans during Bayern’s 2-1 victory over FC Copenhagen in October resulted in a punishment of forty thousand euros for the club.

During the month of December, the German club was issued a one-match suspension that prevented them from purchasing away tickets. Following the incident that occurred at Lazio, the ban was implemented.

Bayern has issued a statement indicating that they would not be appealing the decision made by UEFA.

Our only option is to submit to this penalty. The chief executive officer of Bayern, Jan-Christian Dreesen, stated that not only were fireworks set off, but they were also shot purposely onto the field, putting onlookers in immediate danger.

An appeal would be pointless because there was such a clear breach of the terms and conditions of the probationary period.

“It is a significant setback that we are now have to compete away from home without the support of our fans. All of our supporters and the squad have been caused a great deal of harm by a small group of individuals who have committed offenses.

During the draw that will take place on Friday, Arsenal will learn who their opponents will be in the quarterfinals.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain are among the teams that have already entered their names into the hat.

In addition, on Wednesday, they will be joined by either Inter Milan or Atletico Madrid, as well as one of the two teams, Borussia Dortmund or PSV Eindhoven.
