Former Arsenal midfielder Gilberto Silva says that the Gunners can defeat Bayern Munich when they meet in the Champions League last 16.

Gilberto Silva has claimed that Arsenal can beat Bayern Munich in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

The Gunners were drawn against the reigning European champions in the last 16, and Gilberto has tipped his former club to make it through to the quarter-finals.

"I remember how everyone said Barcelona would win, but Bayern did a very good job and went through," he told The Independent.

"Arsenal are having a very good season and they have the quality to progress to the next stage.

"Because Arsenal are a young team they are always getting stronger and stronger. They have brought in players with the quality to make a difference on their own and for the team as a whole."

Arsenal are currently top of the Premier League table.
