Arsenal F.C. vs Sporting CP Prediction 16 March 2023

The program of the Europa League round of 16 will continue in the capital of England, where Sporting will visit the local Arsenal.

Arsenal are in top form at the moment, as evidenced by their five consecutive league wins over Aston Villa (4-2), Leicester (1-0), Everton (4-0), Bournemouth (3-2) and Fulham (3-0). Thus, the Gunners have cemented themselves at the top of the standings and are racing towards their first English title in 19 years.

Over the past month and a half, Sporting have also gained an impressive pace, and victories over Estoril (2-0), Portimonense (1-0) and Boavista (3-0) in the Primeira Liga are a clear confirmation of this. It should be noted that in the UEL round of 32, the Lions dealt with Midtjylland (1-1, 4-0), and in the Champions League group they finished third after Tottenham and Eintracht.

A week ago, the teams had a draw 2-2, but then Arsenal used a semi-reserve squad. We believe that at home the Gunners will bring up their main forces, thanks to which they will not leave a chance for the Portuguese.
