- Sporting Lisbon were 4-1 winners against Manchester City on matchday four
- Arsenal have failed to score in both Champions League away games
- Recommended bet: Sporting Lisbon to win

Sporting Lisbon may be without Ruben Amorim, but after firing four past Manchester City in their previous Champions League home game they will relish a visit from another English giant.

Arsenal have yet to score away from the Emirates in this competition and Mikel Arteta's side have struggled on the road in general of late.

Team News

Sporting appear likely to be as close to full strength as possible. Nuno Santos is a long-term member of the physio room with a knee and Pedro Goncalves, who scored against Arsenal last year, is also expected to sit this out.

Marcus Edwards, who scored twice in the win over Amarante in the cup, was once on the books of Tottenham and could get a chance to shine against the Gunners.

Ben White (knee) and Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee) and Kieran Tierney (hamstring) remain on the sidelines for Arsenal, but Arteta was able to field Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka at the weekend and appears to have no other concerns.

The Stats

Sporting are unbeaten in 18 matches across all competitions, winning 17 of those.

Viktor Gyokeres has scored 33 goals for Sporting and Sweden already this season.

Arsenal have failed to score in both of their Champions League away games and have only won one of their last seven away matches across all competitions.

Arsenal have only managed one win in 10 trips to face Portuguese clubs.

Prediction

Sporting conceded after only four minutes when Man City visited on matchday four, but they responded with four goals of their own in a stunning win.

Since that, they have scored 10 goals in two domestic outings, with Joao Pereira now in the dugout following Amorim's move to Manchester United.

The hosts are on a magnificent 14-game winning home run across all tournaments and will be eager to add to that with another English scalp.

Arsenal, meanwhile, have yet to score a Champions League goal on the road this season, firing blanks against Atalanta and Inter Milan.

They were back on form in Saturday's comfortable home success against Nottingham Forest, but Sporting are unlikely to make things as easy.

Pereira's first game at the helm witnessed a 6-0 victory over Amarante in the Taca de Portugal and his side carry lots of goal threat, not least from star striker Gyokeres.

He gave the Citizens a torrid time here a few weeks ago and can inspire his side to more Champions League success against a Gunners side who have not been travelling well.
