🗞️ Team News: Arsenal

It’s our opinion that The Gunners may well make use of the 4-2-3-1 formation for this one, handing starts to David Raya, Cristhian Mosquera, William Saliba, Gabriel, Piero Hincapie, Martin Zubimendi, Declan Rice, Noni Madueke, Eberechi Eze, Gabriel Martinelli and Viktor Gyoekeres.

📰 Team News: Sporting Lisbon

It’s our belief that Sportinguistas will likely begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, settling for Rui Silva, Eduardo Quaresma, Ousmane Diomande, Goncalo Inacio, Maximiliano Araujo, Morten Hjulmand, Hidemasa Morita, Geny Catamo, Trincao, Pedro Goncalves and Luis Suarez.

🔮 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Arsenal will probably see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

At the other end, Sporting Lisbon will not find it easy to break down their defence but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be scoring here.

Our tip is for a decent 3-1 victory for Arsenal when the full-time whistle blows.
