Arsenal are already focused on Tuesday's Champions League clash with Bayern Munich after doing their job in the Premier League and going top after claiming a comfortable 3-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion.
Despite the Gunners being in better form than the Bavarian side, many people consider the reigning Bundesliga champions to be favourites because of their experience in the knockout rounds of European competition, while Arsenal managed to qualify for the quarter-finals this season for the first time in 14 years.
However, for Gunners captain Martin Odegaard, his side should fear no-one, despite having a striker of Harry Kane's status. "Kane is a good player of course and I have played against him a few times. We know the quality he has in the box and he is also good in the link up. We are facing a good team on Tuesday." he said.
"I think we should respect him, but I don't think we should fear anyone and we should focus on ourselves and the quality we have in our team. And that is all. They (Bayern) have had some strange results in the league but if you look at the team, you can see the quality they have, and we know that, we know they are a really strong side. It will be a tough battle, but we are ready," he concluded.
