📋 Team News: Arsenal
Takehiro Tomiyasu (Calf injury) and Jurrien Timber (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be playing for Arsenal gaffer Mikel Arteta.
We are thinking that The Gunners should employ a 4-3-3 formation in the match, handing starts to David Raya, Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel, Jakub Kiwior, Martin Oedegaard, Declan Rice, Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard.
📋 Team News: Porto
Porto boss Sérgio Conceição has multiple availability issues to deal with. Iván Marcano (Cruciate ligament tear) and Zaidu (Cruciate ligament tear) are not able to play.
From our viewpoint, Dragões might make use of a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting Diogo Costa, Joao Mario, Pepe, Otavio, Wendell, Nico Gonzalez, Alan Varela, Chico Conceicao, Pepe, Wenderson Galeno and Evanilson.
💡 Prediction_, Over 2.5 goals
Our feeling is that Arsenal have it within them to see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.
However, Porto will be up against it getting on the scoresheet but do we see them hitting back at some stage here.
We’re tipping a comfortable 3-1 margin for Arsenal at full-time.
