Following their incredible win over Manchester City last time out in the Champions League, Sporting Lisbon will be looking to repeat their remarkable feat, as they take on Arsenal. Ruben Amorim has left Sporting since his iconic triumph, moving on to Manchester United but the mark left by the great man promises to be a significant one. Arsenal meanwhile are reeling from some poor form of their own, but they remain one of the front runners for the Champions League title with many UCL betting apps.

Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal Analysis
The stakes will be sky high in this one, as both sides look to secure their place in the top 8 as quickly as possible.
Sporting Lisbon
Whilst the scoreline may have flattered them a touch against Manchester City, few could deny that Sporting Lisbon were good value for their win over the 2023 champions. Plenty has changed in the Portuguese capital since then, with Ruben Amorim moving on to Manchester United but Sporting are sat 2nd in the UCL table and have the chance to make further waves in the competition. The new UCL format is throwing up plenty of interesting narratives and Sporting have been one of the stories of the competition so far with many Champions League betting sites.
Team news: Nuno Santos and Pedro Goncalves miss out here for Sporting.
Sporting Lisbon Predicted Lineup:
Israel, Reis, Debast, Diomande, Quenda, Araujo, Braganca, Hjulmand, Trincao, Harder and Gyokeres.
Arsenal
Balancing the Premier League and the Champions League is a key issue for Arsenal, but they remain on the periphery in both competitions. It perhaps hasn’t been the start to the season many people envisaged for the Gunners and Mikel Arteta, but they have plenty of time to close the gaps in both competitions, but this looks to be a tough assignment on the road.
Team news: Takehiro Tomiyasu, Riccardo Calafiori and Kieran Tierney all remain injured for the Gunners here.
Arsenal Predicted Lineup:
Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, Odegaard, Rice, Jorginho, Saka, Martinelli & Jesus.
Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal Prediction
This should be a bumper fixture in Portugal, between two sides that have the potential to go all the way in the Champions League this season. Adapting to life under Ruben Amorim will be tough for Sporting but they have a strong infrastructure that should see them through this season. However, Arsenal are in need of a win, particularly in the Champions League and they should prevail here.
Prediction: Arsenal to win the match – 11/8 (+138) – Rhino Bet.
