With the Arsenal first team facing Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday evening, the Gunners’ u19 team will play the same opposition earlier in the day at 13:00 GMT.

It’s a must-win game for Arsenal, with no possibility of progression to the knockout stages with any other result.

Even a win probably won’t be enough, as the teams currently sitting in the qualification places are at least five points clear of Arsenal with just two games remaining. But winning is the only way the young Gunners will have a chance.

The good news is that Max Dowman is set for involvement, with UEFA confirming that he’s in Arsenal’s official provisional squad list for the match.

Other notable inclusions are Andre Harriman-Annous, who made his senior debut in October, and Luis Munoz, who is only 13 years old and the youngest player Arsenal have ever called up for this competition.

Marli Salmon is also in the squad, after joining first-team training on Tuesday, so the expectation is that he won’t be involved in the senior squad on Wednesday night.

Arsenal will stream the game on Arsenal.com and the official club app.
