Arsenal's Mesut Ozil regards Bayern Munich as one of the favourites to win the Champions League, but sees no reason for the Gunners to enter next month's Last 16 tie feeling they are the underdogs, as the German champions are "more vulnerable".

“When you look down, that's where you'll land. When you really want to reach your target, you must look ahead,” the German midfielder told Kicker magazine.

“In football you never know. To win the trophy, you have to face the biggest clubs in the world and prove yourself.

“It is great that we have that chance again. Bayern are one of the favourites, in recent years they have played outstanding football.

“This season, they have become more vulnerable.

"They are not unbeatable – especially this year."
