Charlie Nicholas does not believe that Arsenal will make it into the knockout stages of the Champions League.

Arsenal suffered their second consecutive loss in the group stages after going down 3-2 to Greek side Olympiakos at home on Tuesday night.

While there are still four games remaining in the group, things are not looking good for the Gunners as they now prepare to square off against German giants Bayern Munich in their next two encounters.

Former Gunners forward Nicholas is not too optimistic about Arsenal's chances and has stated that the Gunners look unlikely to make it into the knockout stages of Europe's elite competition.

Nicholas told Sky Sports: "I don't think they will get out of this group and the reason I think that is because Bayern will keep the ball at the Emirates, Arsenal will get frustrated and they'll end up getting broken down.

"If Arsenal were to get a draw they'd have a chance but only two players acquitted themselves in this game - Theo Walcott and Alexis Sanchez."
