Arsenal take on Sporting CP in the second leg of their Europa League round of 16 matchup this evening.
The north London outfit played out a thrilling 2-2 draw in Lisbon last week after making numerous changes to their regular starting XI, with the likes of Matt Turner, Fabio Vieira and Reiss Nelson all handed rare starts whilst Jakub Kiwio made his first-team debut for the Gunners. Mikel Arteta's side then went on to secure a hugely impressive 3-0 victory away to Fulham on Sunday afternoon, restoring their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League table.
That visit to Craven Cottage also saw the long-awaited return of star striker Gabriel Jesus following a lengthy spell on the sidelines due to a knee injury. Fellow attacker Leandro Trossard also recovered from a groin problem, albeit a much less serious issue.
