Follow live as Premier League leaders Arsenal travel to Sporting CP in the UEFA Europa League round of 16.

Arsenal are favourites for the match, but being on the road in European play and given their injuries up front, they still sport plus moneyline odds. Kieran Tierney was left home in London due to an illness, and Martin Odegaard is also sick and does not appear but made the trip with the team. Gabriel is rested in favour of Jakub Kiwior who makes his Arsenal debut at the back. 90 mins to kick: Arsenal will have their work cut out for them defensively today, partially given that Sporting don't have a lone goal scoring threat, with the load spread out amongst multiple attackers. A few of the younger members of the Arsenal squad take a stroll on the pitch. 75 mins to kick: Team news is out a bit early for the match. In six matches this season for the Gunners, Turner has conceded just two goals while picking up four clean sheets, including one goal and three clean sheets in four Europa League games. 7 mins to kick: Portuguese youth interational Fabio Vieira, who arrived at Arsenal from Sporting's rivals Porto this past summer, gets the start against a familiar opponent. 4th min: Both teams are looking to possess the ball and build from the back, which should make for a fascinating tactical battle. Adan (GK) — 3. He had done all the hard work to get in a dangerous spot and create an opening, but can't finish! Turner (GK) — 4.

Arsenal lineup vs Sporting CP: The Premier League leaders will be hoping to maintain their momentum when they face Sporting CP in the first leg of their ...

Sporting will be captained by former Premier League centre-back Sebastian Coates, who is now into his eighth straight season with the club. Jorginho didn't feature last time out and could be primed for game time against Sporting with the former more likely to start, with Thomas Partey rested. Former Arsenal full-back Hector Bellerin is at Sporting on loan from Barcelona but does not make the matchday squad. Matt Turner continues in goal as the team's Cup starter. That leaves Arsenal even shorter up front with Gabriel Jesus yet to return after knee surgery and Eddie Nketiah in doubt after missing their last match with an ankle concern. Aside from that, Mohamed Elneny is the only other confirmed absentee after he also underwent a knee operation.

Tobias Stieler: The referee in charge of Sporting CP vs Arsenal (90min)

He's since refereed 160 Bundesliga matches, 11 Champions League games and 17 Europa League games along with various qualifiers both domestically and in European ...

The German has only been in charge of one Sporting CP game during his career and it was way back in 2018. Sporting were 2-0 up from the first leg but then lost the first 90 minutes in the Czech Republic 2-0, meaning the game went to extra time. The Portuguese side grabbed the winner in extra-time after a Bruno Fernandes assist. While he may not have refereed an Arsenal game, there is some evidence that Siebert will resort to lots of yellow cards should a game call for it. He's since refereed 160 Bundesliga matches, 11 Champions League games and 17 Europa League games along with various qualifiers both domestically and in European and international competitions. The Premier League leaders have been given a tricky tie against Sporting but it's one that they should be winning.

Arsenal player ratings vs Sporting CP as Saliba and Vieira good ... (Football.London)

How the Gunners got on individually in their Europa League round of 16 first leg clash at Estadio Jose Alvalade, as Mikel Arteta's side got a draw against ...

Good defending and supported the attack to a decent level. Takehiro Tomiyasu: Showed his versatility by coming in from the bench to play a decent cameo at left-back. Didn't get on the ball enough to impact things and had one very poor set piece delivery. Reiss Nelson: After the fireworks of Saturday this was little more than a fizzle from Nelson. Gabriel Martinelli: Denied one of the goals of all time by a superb tackle from Jeremiah St. Interesting to see him used as a false nine after Nelson went off. Fabio Vieira: Was trying the hardest to force breakthroughs and played some nice balls going forward. Probably stupid to get involved in a scuffle after Saliba's goal which saw him booked. William Saliba: A nicely taken goal to put Arsenal 1-0 up in the first half and a superb goal saving tackle just before Sporting went ahead in the second. Defended well for the most part. Ben White: Got forward where possible, but the right side of Arsenal's attack was largely anonymous. Should have come out for the Sporting's first but was probably unlucky for the second.

When is it? How can you watch it? What are the possible line-ups? All you need to know about the UEFA Europa League round of 16 second leg between Arsenal ...

Arsenal are a team that pushes opponents to play on the edge of their area; we have to be able to defend. Sporting have drawn their last three games in England (including a 0-0 at Arsenal in the 2018/19 Europa League group stage). There are things to improve, but we showed a lot of resilience. Juste, Coates, Gonçalo Inácio; Ricardo Esgaio, Morita, Pedro Gonçalves, Matheus Reis; Edwards, Paulinho, Francisco Trincão (first-leg starting line-up) With the away goals rule now abolished, another draw could mean a dramatic finish. How can you watch it?
