Ozil ruled out of Bayern Munich clash
Mesut Ozil will miss Arsenal's match with Bayern Munich as Arsene Wenger hopes to instead have him back against Lincoln City.
Arsenal will be without Mesut Ozil for the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
Ozil missed Saturday's 3-1 Premier League defeat at Liverpool with flu and will not recover in time to play against Bayern, with the Gunners trailing 5-1 from the first leg.
"Ozil is not in the squad," manager Arsene Wenger said at his pre-match media conference.
"I don't think he is ready physically. I think he will be ready for the weekend."
