Mikel Arteta’s side – boosted by the return of key players – will hope to bounce back from defeat to Internazionale. Sporting are in European action for the first time since former boss Ruben Amorim led them to a shock 4-1 victory over Manchester City.
Arsenal travel to Sporting CP next in the UEFA Champions League as they look to redeem themselves following a narrow 1-0 defeat to Internazionale.
The Gunners suffered their first loss and conceded their first goal of the 2024/25 European campaign last time out and are currently sitting 12th in the league phase.
Meanwhile, unbeaten Sporting are in fine form and only Liverpool have bettered their record so far in the Champions League this season.
